Romans
8:35-39 “Who shall separate us from the love of
Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or
nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: For your sake we face
death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in
all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For
I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither
the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor
anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God
that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:35-39
Last
night James thanked God for His love for us and that He always loves us. What a
difference it would make if we could all remember that all the time!!! Nothing
can separate us from His love. Believers aren’t exempt from troubles and
times of suffering, but we know that in the end we will be more than conquerors
through Christ who made it possible for us to have eternal salvation!
Do
you ever feel like the world is against you? What about family members,
friends, co-workers, etc.?
When
feelings like this surface, how can you and I remind ourselves and claim the
fact that God always loves us?
What
encouragement will you and I receive by remembering that NO ONE and NO THING
can separate us (who are children of God) from God’s love?
