Welcoming the Congregation
Good morning, church family! I’m so glad you’re here today. It’s always a blessing to come together to worship, learn, and grow as God’s people. Whether you’re filled with joy or carrying heavy burdens, know this: you’re in the right place. God has a message for you today, a message of hope, peace, and purpose.
Opening Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing us together today. Thank You for the gift of Your Word, which lights our path and strengthens our hearts. As we open our Bibles and hear Your voice, help us to see Your love more clearly, trust You more deeply, and follow You more faithfully. We invite Your Spirit to move in this place. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Introduction to Scripture
The passage we’re studying today is Romans 5:1-11. This scripture is packed with powerful truths about what it means to live in peace with God, to rejoice in hope, and to find joy even in life’s challenges. It reminds us that through Jesus, we’ve been given not just forgiveness, but a restored relationship with our Creator.
The Events in Romans 5:1-11
In this passage, Paul writes about the incredible blessings we receive through faith in Jesus Christ. He talks about the peace we have with God, the hope we have in His glory, and the way God’s love is poured into our hearts. Paul also reminds us that even in suffering, God is at work, shaping us into the people He created us to be. The passage culminates with the assurance that, because of Jesus’ sacrifice, we’ve been reconciled to God.
NIV Bible Verse: Romans 5:1-11
1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.
3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die.
8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him!
10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!
11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Intercessory Prayer
Lord, thank You for the peace and hope You’ve given us through Jesus Christ. Help us to trust You in every season, to find joy even in our trials, and to grow in our faith. Pour Your love into our hearts and guide us to live as people reconciled to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Congregational Prayer Response
Father, we rejoice in the peace we have with You. Thank You for Your love, poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit. Help us to live in hope and share Your love with the world. Amen.
