Devotion Romans 8:31-38 I’m With Him

Romans 8:31-38 – “31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”  37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

So God is for me.  What, wait a minute!  What does that mean?  Well, since He is the only All-Powerful being in existence, and always will be the only one, then I am absolutely protected because God is on my side.  Since He did not spare His own Son but sent Him to die for me then I am absolutely and eternally saved because God is on my side.  Since God Himself washed away all sin from me, then He will not validate any accusations against me.  So I am absolutely sinless because God is on my side.  Since Jesus died for my sins and calls me His own then I am absolutely His child because God is on my side.  Because there is nothing physical or spiritual that can separate me from the love of God then I am absolutely loved because God is on my side.  God is for me, Jesus has claimed me as His own, and nothing can come between God and me.  I am absolutely God’s child because God is on my side.

God is on our side and nothing comes between us.  Shouldn’t we feel the same way toward God?  With the protection of God, we should always be on God’s side, no matter what or who opposes our relationship with Him.  We stand with God who choose us to be on His team. We stand with God, always and forever, we stand with God!  Praise God!

Psalm 150:6 – Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord!

Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.

Micah 6:8 – He has shown You, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of You but to do justly, to love mercy, And to walk humbly with Your God.
