Genesis 6:1-7:10; Job 8:1-22; Matthew 5:1-20
And also say, Behold, your servant Jacob is behind us…and afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me. Gen. 32:20
By which He made us accepted in the Beloved. Ephesians 1:6 NKJV
Jacob wondered if Esau would accept him or if he would have to fight for his life. To pave the way, he sent his brother a gift before he met him face to face. God loves us so much that He gave us the gift of salvation through His beloved Son. We don’t have to wonder if we are accepted. If we are in Christ, it is a fact! We are accepted, blessed, forgiven, redeemed, and sealed and we have an inheritance in heaven. What a wonderful God! —Annette Baal
I’m forgiven because You were forsaken.
I’m accepted, You were condemned.
And I’m alive and well, Your Spirit is within me,
Because You died and rose again. —Billy James Foote
