But [they were written] for our sake too. [Righteousness, standing acceptable to God] will be granted and credited to us also who believe in (trust in, adhere to, and rely on) God, Who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, Who was betrayed and put to death because of our misdeeds and was raised to secure our justification (our acquittal), [making our account balance and absolving us from all guilt before God].

And if we were co-crucified with the Anointed One, we know that we will also share in the fullness of his life. And we know that since the Anointed One has been raised from the dead to die no more, his resurrection life has vanquished death and its power over him is finished. For by his sacrifice he died to sin’s power once and for all, but he now lives continuously for the Father’s pleasure. So let it be the same way with you! Since you are now joined with him, you must continually view yourselves as dead and unresponsive to sin’s appeal while living daily for God’s pleasure in union with Jesus, the Anointed One.
Romans 6:8-11

Dear Jesus, Thank you for laying down your life for me. Greater love has no one than this than to lay down one’s life for his friends. (John 15:13) Thank you for the power in your name. I confess you as my LORD, Deliverer, Messiah, Savior, Master, intercessor and advocate. Dear Lord Jesus, I confess my weakness, please give me the grace and the strength that I need to navigate this life journey in You, with You and for You. I receive the faith and confidence to walk without any intimidation and condemnation. I place my trust in you, all of it and I know I can never be disappointed. Thank you that your gift of love is never outdated. Help me to value it and use it wisely. Draw me closer to stay plugged into the socket of your power and grace.
