It is with great pleasure we offer to the Christian public a new edition of Pastor Don Fortner’s classic daily readings book Grace For Today. Since it was first published thirty-eight years ago it has been a devotional companion to many of the Lord’s children who have found the beauties of God’s sovereign grace a blessing for daily thought and meditation. It is a privilege to begin or end our day contemplating the goodness, mercy and grace of God in the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace is at the heart of every believer’s relationship with God. If God does not give us grace today, if He should withhold His grace today, if grace should pass us by today, we have no hope in this world and none for the world to come. Yet mercifully, our Triune God has revealed His grace to sinners. In love the Father chose a people in eternal election to save and bring to Himself. These He betrothed to His Son in the covenant of peace to redeem them from death and hell. Having successfully secured the elect’s deliverance by His own sacrifice, our blessed Saviour sent His Holy Spirit to bring spiritual life, and gather His bride by the preaching of the gospel. Sovereign grace characterised Pastor Fortner’s preaching and teaching for fifty years. He never veered from declaring election, predestination, particular redemption and irresistible grace wherever he ministered. The clarity of his message endeared him to the Lord’s people who seek constantly to know more of Christ. These feed on gospel truth, and are nourished in mind and soul by discovering God’s sovereignty in every aspect of their Christian experience. We trust Grace For Today will continue to speak to a new generation of believers, pointing us to Christ and reminding us ‘salvation is of the Lord’. The passing of our brother two years ago and his entrance into the presence of his beloved Jesus left a space in the lives of many friends, yet we rejoice that ‘he being dead yet speaketh’ and we trust the Lord will yet be pleased to speak to His church and people through these daily readings from the pen of a good and faithful servant.
