Our Daily Bread Devotional For November 27, 2022 : Topic - So Beautiful

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Our Daily Bread Devotional For November 27, 2022 : Topic - So Beautiful

We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works : Ephesians 2:10

Today's Scripture : Ephesians 2:1–10

Insight

In Ephesians 1–2, Paul paints a beautiful picture of God’s wonderful plan of salvation. His original readers (the Ephesian church) were already believers in Jesus (1:1), who had received the Holy Spirit (v. 13). But they were at the beginning of their journey and were babes in Christ. Paul prayed that “the eyes of [their understanding] may be enlightened” (v. 18). According to pastor and writer D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (God’s Way of Reconciliation), Paul longed for them (and us) to be certain of “the [great] power of God toward all that believe. . . . Nothing is more vital than that we should be clear about the power of God that is manifested in this Christian salvation.” Because of God’s grace (2:5–10), nothing can separate us from Him (Romans 8:35–39).

Message : I was very young when I peered through a hospital nursery window and saw a newborn for the first time. In my ignorance, I was dismayed to see a tiny, wrinkly child with a hairless, cone-shaped head. The baby’s mother standing near us, however, couldn’t stop asking everyone, “Isn’t he gorgeous?” I was reminded of that moment when I saw a video of a young dad tenderly singing the song, “You Are So Beautiful” to his baby girl. To her enraptured daddy, the little girl was the most beautiful thing ever created.

Is that how God looks at us? Ephesians 2:10 says that we’re His “handiwork”—His masterpiece. Aware of our own failings, it may be hard for us to accept how much He loves us or to believe that we could ever be of value to Him. But God doesn’t love us because we deserve love (vv. 3–4); He loves us because He is love (1 John 4:8). His love is one of grace, and He showed the depth of it when, through Jesus’ sacrifice, He made us alive in Him when we were dead in our sins (Ephesians 2:58).

God’s love isn’t fickle. It’s constant. He loves the imperfect, the broken, those who are weak and those who mess up. When we fall, He’s there to lift us up. We’re His treasure, and we’re so beautiful to Him.

Reflect & Pray

What does it mean to know that “God is love”? How can you accept the truth of God’s endless love for you when you feel undeserving of it?

Precious Father, thank You for Your love for me.
