Won By the Lord

The Lord won my soul from iniquities’ wages... imparting to me His divine nature;* He conquered my sinful flesh against worldly filthiness by His regeneration-mercy… Vanquishing my condemned state Of spiritual death due to transgressions He declared me as righteous thru His justification-might; Now, I'm heaven-bound by virtue of His holiness to live for Him upon faith's power.
*2Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. March 1, 2019
