A Simple Choice

Kerusso Daily Devotional

In all the world, there are almost countless ways people try to find God. Some people are drawn to the mystical, while others chase after the practical. Does it work?

God knew we would all look to fill the void in our spirits, the one put there when man first sinned. He also already knew what our escape route would be, the path back to Him.

Romans 10:9–10 says, “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”

The so-called “Roman Road” is in reality a face-to-face with the Living God. Jesus Christ Himself is our aim, and our benefactor. He loved us so much that He offered Himself as a sacrifice for sin. It’s very simple really. God accepted the sacrifice and raised His precious Son from the dead. Now it is there waiting for us to accept that great and priceless gift.

Let’s pray.

Lord, we complicate things sometimes, but your salvation is a simple choice, and it is free. Blessed be your name forever and forever! Amen.
