Salvation Secure - Part 6: More Confidence

A firm foundation is key to walking free and confident so, here are some more faith building passages to tuck away...

Isaiah 43:11 - " I, even I. am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior."

Isaiah 45:17 - " But Israel will be saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation..." [if you are a believer, this applies to you... as believers we are grafted in... Romans 4:16; ch. 11]

Isaiah 51:6 - "... my salvation lasts forever..."

Jonah 2:9 - "... Salvation comes from the Lord."

John 3: 36 - "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life..." [ no mention of deeds or works being a requirement for salvation- just belief]

John 5:24 - "I tell you the truth [Jesus speaking], whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. " [upon belief, we are granted eternal life/ effective immediately- never to be condemned - God is incapable of lying and salvation can't and won't be taken back].

Acts 4:12 - " Salvation is found in no one [or thing] else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. [Jesus is it! ]

Ephesians 1:7-8 - " In him [Jesus] we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. "

Ephesians 2:4-5 - " But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved."

Philippians 2:12b-13 - "... continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to is good purpose."

Philippians 3:8-9 - " What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things, I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes form the law, but that which is through faith in Christ - the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. "

I John 5: 11-13 - " And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may KNOW that you have eternal life."

Colossians 1: Jesus is redemption and forgiveness of sins...

James 2: Faith and works are married; they do not function apart from one another according to scripture...


May your hearts be greatly encouraged as you meditate on God's truth and the awesome work He has accomplished for us to be restored unto Himself...

We have an amazing God who loves us lavishly!
