Romans 5

Father, hallelujah! You demonstrate your love for me in that, while I was still lost in sin and selfishness, Christ died for me. Now, I know I have been justified by his blood, and I have been saved from the wrath to come through Christ.

For, if while I was your enemy, Father, you reconciled me to yourself through the sacrifice of your son, much more, now that we are reconciled, I am saved by Jesus’s perfect life.

All this saving power and purpose is by your grace, Father, and is a gift to me by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, your Messiah and my Savior.

With joy and thanksgiving, I receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness that is mine through faith in Christ Jesus and by the love of Christ Jesus.
