SUMMARY:Romans 6:23
DESCRIPTION:Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (KJV) \nAre you working or are you receiving? \nWhat is the difference between wages and gifts? What is the definition of gift? \n\nSomething given voluntarily without payment in return\, as to show favor toward someone\, honor an occasion\, or make a gesture of assistance.\nA direct or indirect transfer in which the giver doesn’t expect an equal amount of consideration in return. \n\nFor clarity\, if someone gives you money or any other asset\, and they are not asking for goods or services in exchange; it’s a gift.  \nA wage\, on the other hand\, is:  \n\nA fixed regular payment\, typically paid on a daily or weekly basis\, made by an employer to an employee\, especially to a manual or unskilled worker. The payment is usually on an hourly\, daily\, weekly\, or monthly basis.\nAll remuneration for services performed by an employee for his employer.\n\nWhen you sin\, you are an employee of the enemy. He gives you a wage\, it’s death.  \nGalatians 6:7-8 Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned\, disdained\, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions\, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows\, that and that only is what he will reap. 8 For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature\, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction\, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.\n(AMPC) \nThat’s just the truth of the matter. Every time you sin\, you punch your timecard. Isn’t it a wonderful thing Jesus gave you the gift of salvation?  \nRomans 3:23-24 since all have sinned and continually fall short of the glory of God\, 24 and are being justified [declared free of the guilt of sin\, made acceptable to God\, and granted eternal life] as a gift by His [precious\, undeserved] grace\, through the redemption [the payment for our sin] which is [provided] in Christ Jesus\, (AMP) \nYou could not work for it even if you wanted to. You know it is a gift because He was not looking for you to give anything back. Actually\, He knew you were not even considering giving anything back at the time He gave it. Though He wants you to pay it forward\, that was not even a prerequisite to His giving. He died to give you the gift of life and it more abundantly.  \nRomans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore\, brethren\, by the mercies of God\, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice\, holy\, acceptable to God\, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world\, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind\, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (New King James Version) \nHis desire is for you to accept His gift and live like you’re grateful for it.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, because of Jesus\, I have turned in my letter of resignation to the enemy. I will no longer work for him and I thank You. I repent for all the times I took part-time work for the devil when I should have been working full time for You. I have received what Jesus did for me. I did not have to work for it and what I do now is not drudgery and is not labor. I can not earn what I You have already given me. All I had to do was open my heart\, allow Jesus to come in and acknowledge Him as my Lord and savior. I am excited because there were no other requirements. I am humbled and filled with gratitude just thinking about that. The world tells You nothing in life is free. Jesus said. I give myself freely\, come and receive. Now I will live a life that speaks of the free gift that not only was available for me\, is available for all…  \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:
