Christ Alone

Galatians 3; Colossians 2&3

Your law, Father, taught me my need for your salvation, for a savior. I could not keep the law perfectly, and so I knew I was cursed by the law if there was not another way back to you.

Praise you, Father, for another way, the only way. Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law by becoming the curse for me. You, Lord Jesus, bore the punishment that I surely deserved.

Now, by your grace, Father, and by your sacrifice, Lord Jesus, all the blessings of Abraham are mine. I have received the gift of your Holy Spirit, who lives in me and communes with me, in joy and peace and conviction and comfort.

I am led by God, the Spirit. I am born again by your living, eternal spirit, who lives in me and is now my new man.

I have begun my life with you, Father, in your spirit, and I will continue to seek you in your spirit. I will not be bewitched to think I can now perfect myself with works of the law.

My salvation started with faith in the work of Christ Jesus, and it will be completed in faith in Jesus‘s finished work. I am complete in Christ and Christ alone.
