Devotion:
Read Romans 8:37-39.
What awesome good news! Nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord! These are some of the most comforting verses in Scripture. Believers throughout history and currently have had to face hardships in many forms, persecution, illness, imprisonment and even death. These could cause anyone to fear that God had abandoned them. But this passage is an emphatic “NO.” Nothing can stop Christ’s constant presence with us. God tells us how great his love is so we will feel totally secure in him. If God is for us, who can stand against us? So, there is no need for fear - just total confidence in God and your relationship with him. Will hardship and heartbreak still come? Yes, but God is with you putting all the pieces together for good and for his honor and glory. His love embraces us in ways that comfort and embolden us to step forward for him.
