The Double Grip of Protection
Text: John 10:27–30
Jesus said, “I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.” — John 10:28
What a precious promise! Our salvation is not something we hold onto by our own strength. We are securely held in the double grip of God’s protection—held by the hand of the Good Shepherd, Jesus, who laid down His life for us, and held by the hand of the Father, from whom no one can sn**ch us. (John 10:28–29)
And because the Son and the Father are one (John 10:30), we can rest in the assurance that our salvation is secure in Him.
Because we are secure in Christ, we are free—free to obey, free to serve, and free to love Him without fear. We do not follow Jesus in order to earn salvation; we follow Him because we already belong to Him. We do not serve to earn His love; we serve because His love has already claimed and secured us. (Ephesians 1:13–14)
So, listen to His voice. Follow His leading. Trust His protection. And live boldly for Him.
You are held. You are secure. You are deeply loved. You are forever His.
