Thought for Today and Every Day: Jesus Saves

Popular hashtags on social media showcase a thought for the day or thoughts for a specific day of the week: 

#ThoughtOfTheDay

#ThoughtForTheDay

#TuesdayThoughts

Furthermore, people often use hashtags for wisdom and motivation alongside the above examples like: 

#MondayMotivation 

#WednesdayWisdom

Although I realized these hashtags let others know the information shared in a particular post as an important and sometimes personal thought. Still, a spiritual truth occurred to me.

The most unsurpassed and unmatched and incomparable thought I share with others today or any day remains: 

#JesusSaves

Since Isaiah 55:8 says God’s thoughts are higher than our thoughts, He provides the wisdom for salvation and the spiritual motivation we need to live the Christian life.

Unsurpassed Thought 

First, Google explains Unsurpassed as “Better than any other.” 

Next, God’s better-than-any-other thought sent Jesus with a purpose. “She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21)

And Romans describes every person’s condition and need for saving; how Jesus saves us, and the unsurpassed salvation of Christ.

 “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23)

 “The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23)

 “But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)

 “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.” (Romans 10:9-10)

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:13)

Unmatched Thought

So unmatched defined by Merriam-Webster means “No equal or rival.” 

Still, no equal or rival exists for Jesus or His saving power.

“And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)

“I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

No equal or rival exists for #Jesus or His saving power. There is #salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12 Click To Tweet

Incomparable Thought

Last, Cambridge dictionary depicts incomparable as “So good or great that nothing else could achieve the same standard.” 

And no thought from any other religion or god compares to what Jesus achieved for us on the cross. 

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. (John 3:16-17)

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

“Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.” (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

Finally, do you know this unsurpassed, unmatched, and incomparable Savior and His salvation? If not, or you’re not sure, here’s a prayer. 

Salvation prayer:

God, I’m a sinner in need of a Savior. Please forgive me for my sins. I believe Jesus Christ died to give me eternal life. Thank You for Your mercy and grace, and for the gift salvation. I accept Jesus as Lord and invite Him to live and reign in my heart and life. In the name of Jesus, Amen. 

God, I'm a sinner in need of a #Savior…please forgive my sins. I believe #Jesus died to give me eternal life. Thank You for salvation. I accept Christ as Lord and invite Him to reign in my heart and life. Amen.  Click To Tweet
