For there is born to you this day
in the city of David a Savior,
Jesus is the Savior, a title that means “deliverer” and “preserver.” Jesus has many names, but the most important name may be “Savior,” because He is the only One who can save you. “Salvation is of the LORD” (Jonah 2:9). Jesus is the Savior who will deliver you in many ways. He has saved you from the guilt of past sin and from the present bondage of sin, and He will save you from the future penalty of sin when you are taken to Heaven.
Lord, You have done so many things for me—things I don’t even realize. But Your most important gift was saving me; thank You. I feel confident in Your salvation, yet I want more. I want to enjoy all the benefits possible that come from salvation.
Jesus is the Savior (2 Peter 1:1). John referred to Him as “Savior of the world” (1 John 4:14). The Caesars of the Roman Empire called themselves the saviors of the world, but they could only give military deliverance. Jesus came to save you from damnation and eternal death. He will save you from weaknesses, temptations, attacks from Satan and addiction to sin. He will save in all ways those who come to Him.
I praise You, Savior, for “so great a salvation” (Hebrews 2:3). You have saved me in so many ways; continue to save me to the very end. Amen.
Jesus saves you completely in every way.
