Rhapsody of Realities Monday 3 February 2025 TOPIC: Deliverance, Completeness And Preservation
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:10).
The word “salvation” is a unique word that’s often only used by those who believe in Jesus Christ. While many may have a general idea of what it means, only a few have explored the Scriptures to grasp its true meaning and implications. Salvation, simply, means to deliver, to make whole, and to preserve.

That’s what Jesus brought to us. He “saved” us, and the term ‘saved’ originates from the Greek word “sozo,” which embodies the full scope of what Jesus Christ’s death, burial and resurrection achieved for mankind. So when we say that Jesus brought salvation, it means He brought deliverance, completeness and preservation.
Thus, when you say you’re saved by Jesus Christ, it means He delivered you, made you complete, and preserved you. You’ve been delivered from the power of darkness, from sin, from fear, from death and Satan’s dominion, into God’s perfect will. Colossians 1:12-14 says, “Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.”
Having been delivered, He brings you into that state of completeness, protecting you, and stopping anything or anyone from affecting the wholeness He has given you. Now that you’re born again, you’re whole, sound and exactly as He intended in His perfect will. Nothing is left out in your life. You’re perfected in Him. Hallelujah!
This is why the understanding of the full message of salvation is important. Paul explained in his letter to the Roman Church, “But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:8-10). This is what we preach; that in Christ Jesus, you’ve been delivered, made whole and preserved. Blessed be God!
PRAYER / CONFESSION: Dear Father, I thank you for the gift of salvation that I have received in Christ Jesus. I’m delivered, complete in Christ, and preserved in the state of wholeness and victory. My life is a testimony of your saving power, and I walk in your perfect will, and in the full blessings of the Gospel of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
