How Do I Get Salvation
OCTOBER 8, 2026
Daily Reading—Isa. 11-14 / Eph. 5
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
People are always trying to find new ways to get and/or to keep their salvation. Either by the things that they do or the religious acts that they keep. I love Ephesians 2:8-9, because it tells it like it is.
It says, “For by Grace are ye saved.” Grace is God giving us what we do not deserve. We do not deserve to be saved from hell, as all have sinned and come short of His glory. Paul also says salvation is “Not of yourselves,” emphasized with, “Not of works, lest any man should boast.” That removes anything I might do, whether it be a good deed or a religious act. He shares that we are saved through faith in God’s gift. It is faith in Christ and Him alone.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Isn’t it great to know God saves us and not we ourselves?
