Leading The Way - Devotional for March 25
March 25, 2025
God Revealed in Christ
By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.
Through Jesus—
(1) God demonstrated His nature, which is to show compassion and to provide a way for us to know Him personally and intimately.
(2) God displayed His unconditional love. He loves us without regret. However, this does not mean that He dismisses sin. We must choose to turn away from everything that separates us from His love. When we do, He goes to work in our lives bringing heaven’s convicting light to the hidden areas. His presence in us through the Holy Spirit brings freedom to our souls so we can live to our full potential.
(3) God disclosed His mercy. Our sinfulness is enough to condemn us and prevent us from knowing God, but our heavenly Father would not allow this to happen. The birth of Jesus Christ heralded the beginning of the fulfillment of God’s plan. We are no longer sinners condemned to an eternal death. We are saints—forgiven and filled with the hope of glory.
(4) God proclaimed His justice. When a person commits a crime, there is an outcry for punishment. But through His perfect life and sacrificial death on the cross, Jesus paid the price for our sin. He lived and died so that we might know God’s loving desire toward us.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your Son for me. Speak to me, that I may know You, and speak through me, that those around me would see Your unconditional love and come to know You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
“But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, . . .” (Titus 3:4-6).
