Sermon #596
What is your testimony? The stories we tell others, particularly to non-believers, about how we were saved by God's grace are powerful in that they are undisputable. They are OUR stories, and we lived them. In today's reading in Psalms, we encounter four stories of how God rescued the people of Israel when they humbled themselves and repented, calling out to Him. We see how our salvation is not dependent upon our faith in God, but that our faith in God stems from the grace we receive from him (as per Ephesians 2:8-9). And so we find our stories in these four testimonies, and we learn how we can likewise share our stories with others - that we were brought low by sin, that we cried out to God, and He delivered us, and now we praise Him in every aspect of our lives.
