InTouch Daily Devotion

God’s goodness is another attribute of His that’s infinite and unchanging. As a result, everything He does is good. We may look at some difficult aspect of our life and feel that the Lord has not manifested this characteristic to us. However, confusing situations and our limited understanding in no way alter who He is. A circumstance may not be good, but God’s goodness isn’t dependent upon that.

Scripture tells us that God is good to all (Psalm 145:9) and does not show favoritism (Romans 2:11). Sometimes, if we’re being honest, we’d like Him to be more partial with His generosity when people whom we consider bad are doing well in life. However, Jesus said that the Lord “causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous” (Matthew 5:45). We must remember that we as believers don’t deserve the heavenly Father’s favor either. He gives it freely because His nature is to be good to those He loves, and He loves the whole world—both believers and unbelievers.

If we desire the full measure of God’s goodness, we must believe in Him, receive His love, and live obediently. On those who love Him and walk in His righteousness, He pours out the fullness of His favor eternally—nothing is withheld (Psalms 84:11-12).

The Bible states that believers are no longer under the Old Testament law as a system of justification, but are instead under grace, having been freed from the law’s condemnation and penalty of death through faith in Jesus Christ.
This means law-keeping is not required for salvation, but believers are under the "law of Christ" (loving God and neighbor) and guided by the Spirit.

Key Biblical Principles Regarding Not Being Under the Law:

Justification by Faith, Not Law: Romans 3:20 and Galatians 2:16 clarify that no human is justified (declared righteous) by "works of the law," but through faith in Jesus.

Freedom from Condemnation (Romans 6:14): Believers are "not under law but under grace," meaning sin no longer has legal dominion over them to condemn them.

The Purpose of the Law Was Fulfilled: Galatians 3:23–25 describes the law as a "guardian" or "custodian" to lead people to Christ. Since faith has come, the guardian is no longer needed.
Christ is the End of the Law (Romans 10:4): Christ ended the requirement of the Mosaic law for righteousness for all who believe.

Not Lawlessness, but Grace: Not being under the law does not mean living lawlessly or sinning freely (Romans 6:15). Instead, Christians are led by the Spirit, enabling them to fulfill the law’s true intent—love—without being enslaved by its penalty.

Changed Authority: Christians are no longer under the Mosaic covenant but are now "in Christ," operating under the "law of Christ" (Galatians 6:2), which focuses on love and inward transformation.

Key Verses:
Romans 6:14: "For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace."

Galatians 5:18: "But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law."

Romans 10:4: "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes."

HAPPY RESURRECTION SUNDAY!
