Today's reading: Psalm 48-50
"But as for me, God will redeem my life..." Psalm 49:15 NLT
Oh, how I needed His words to me this morning.
Satan had me convinced that I had messed up beyond correction this time...
But God has redeemed my mistakes!
Satan had me convinced that the chains of bondage and sin were too tight for me to become free of them...
But God has released me!
Satan had told me, time and time again, that what I had done was too much...
But God paid a price for my life!
Satan had whispered in my ear that no one was coming for me...
But God sent Jesus riding into my life on His white horse of salvation!
Satan had me fearing the penalty I would have to pay...
But Jesus paid it all!
Ransomed, rescued, released, loosed, delivered...loved!
Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child and forever I am.
Refrain
Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus,No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.
Refrain
I think of my blessèd Redeemer,I think of Him all the day long:
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.
Refrain
I know there’s a crown that is waiting,In yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon, with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.
-Fanny Crosby
