Benediction

"May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all." 2 Corinthians 13:14

This benediction presents the work of the Trinity in salvation. The Father ("God") in "love" redeems us and draws us to Himself. The "Lord Jesus Christ" in "grace" carried our sins to the cross and gives to us the riches of God (see 2 Co. 8:9). The "Holy Spirit" indwells us and enables glorious "fellowship" with God. God in all of His being is committed to our salvation and fellowship with Him. "What, then shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31).

Blessed Trinity, I rejoice in your love, grace, and fellowship. Thank you for your amazing commitment to me. Enrich my experience of You that I may love and glorify You in return.

I'm praying for you.
Pastor Mark
