"For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope - the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good." -Titus 2:11-14 (NIV)
It can be hard to say, "No." There are many options that may seem appealing, but we need to know when to say, "Yes." and when to say, "No."
God gives us different ways to hear His truth. We can read His Word in the Bible. We can learn at church, by studying the Bible, and through fellowship with other believers. We can have conversations with God through prayer. Once we know God and hear His way, we can be confident in saying "No" to the temptations of the world and "Yes" to redemption through our Savior, Jesus Christ!
Just say "No" to wrong and "Yes" to redemption through Jesus!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for salvation and redemption through Your Son, Jesus. Help me to say "No" to temptations and ungodliness and "Yes" to Your love and guidance in my life. Through Jesus, my Savior, I pray, amen.
