Deliverance
Colossians 1:13 ESV
He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,
God is in the business of deliverance. He isn't passively waiting for us to earn our salvation. He's done it for us.
The Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. The Light of the world has dawned. We don't need to be in darkness anymore.
We are born into the kingdom of darkness. Through faith, we can be born again into God's kingdom of Light. The Son of God is the King of kings.
We deserve God's condemnation for our rebellion again him. Yet through faith in his Son we can be forgiven and accepted by him. By his death Jesus made it possible.
'Heavenly Father, we praise you for the deliverance we can enjoy in your Son. Help us entrust ourselves fully to him, in whose name we pray, amen'.
