Where is boasting then? It is excluded • Deshen Daily

Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith (Romans 3:27 KJV)

We write Deshen Daily devotionals with a singular purpose in mind: bring you to experience the power and presence of the living Christ. You can encounter God in the Word just as we do in prayer. We hope that as you follow our ministry, this experience will be a regular occurrence. It is crucial for you to understand what a devotional is and the role of Daily Devotional writings such as Deshen Daily. If you have not yet done so, please carefully write this article “what is a devotional?” on our website or Deshen App.

Salvation is a gift from God. It is essential to remind ourselves constantly of this simple but profound truth. We have all the right to boast before God if we do something to earn His favor. However, if we receive it from Him as a gift, there is no place for boasting. Paul went further to present work and faith as laws.

In the law of works, people do things, and God responds by giving them their due reward, whether good or bad. This reward is not a gift, and God cannot withhold it. It is their due. However, in the law of faith, God works and obtains things for us. We receive these things freely as a gift through the avenue of faith. It is a law, meaning whoever believes receives freely!
