Devotion:
Read Romans 8:35-39.
Absolutely nothing can separate us from God’s love. These verses contain one of the most comforting promises in all Scripture. Believers have always had to face hardships in many forms: persecution, illness, imprisonment, even death. These could cause them to fear that they have been abandoned by God. But Scripture exclaims that it is IMPOSSIBLE to be separated from Christ. Nothing can stop Christ’s constant presence with us. God tells us how great his love is so that we will feel totally secure in him. No matter what happens to us, no matter where we are, we can never be lost to His love. Suffering should not drive us away from God, but help us to embrace Him allowing his love to reach us and heal us.
Personal Worship Option:
Prayer for today: Dearest LORD, it is beyond my comprehension that nothing can separate me from your love...or that you love what you see when you see me. That you would die for me is a wonder. Thank you for opening the way back to you forever. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
