Every now and then a phrase will come along and resound in my spirit. I will be reading the Word of God and then suddenly stop. That often happens in Romans 5 when I read about God’s marvelous gift of grace that came to me while I was still a sinner, still His enemy.
This morning, God spoke with just three little words!
“For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!” [Romans 5:10 NIV]
“How much more!” I heard God whisper … “Do you truly understand that you are living in the ‘how much more?’”
Everything BEGAN when we were reconciled to God through the death of Christ Jesus – it began. Now, reconciled, saved, we are LIVING in the “how much more!”
There is no end to “how much more!” There are no limits to “how much more!”
The question is, “How much do we trust Him for the ‘how much more?’”
