In Romans 10, Paul writes that salvation is all about the welcoming word—“Jesus is my Master.” This means that you embrace Jesus with all you have and you are calling out to God, trusting in Jesus and what He did for you. He said it really was not about doing anything. It was about the welcoming word. It was about calling out to God and trusting in Him.
With your whole being you embrace God and He sets everything right. It is only because of Him that things can be set right. With the welcoming word, life is changed. The word of faith is your righteousness. Remember Abraham believed and because of it he was righteous.
Have you declared the welcoming word yet? If you haven’t done so please understand that if you do so today, if you embrace God and call out to Him right now, you will be saved. God will set everything right between you and Him. If it’s been awhile since you were saved but you have fallen off course, today is a good day to reaffirm the welcoming word once again and ask Him to encourage and empower you to press onward. I am so thankful that we can approach Him with this welcoming word. Only through Jesus we have this great opportunity.
“It’s the word of faith that welcomes God to go to work and set things right for us. This is the core of our preaching. Say the welcoming word to God—‘Jesus is my Master’—embracing, body and soul, God’s work of doing in us what he did in raising Jesus from the dead. That’s it. You’re not ‘doing’ anything; you’re simply calling out to God, trusting him to do it for you. That’s salvation. With your whole being you embrace God setting things right, and then you say it, right out loud: ‘God has set everything right between him and me!’” – Romans 10:8-10 [MSG]
