Scripture: Romans 8: 31-35

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?  Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.  Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Scripture Commentary: Jesus died so you can have everlasting life

Do you ever think that because you aren’t good enough for God, He won’t save you?  Do you ever feel as if salvation is for everyone else but you?  If yes, then these verses are especially for you.  God gave His Son for you; Jesus died for you! He isn’t going to hold back the gift of salvation!  If Christ gave His life for you, He isn’t going to turn around and condemn you!  God will not withhold anything you need to live for Him.

Paul says that Jesus is interceding for us in heaven.  God has acquitted us and has removed our sin and guilt.  Therefore, it’s Satan, not God, who accuses us.  And when Satan accuses us, Jesus advocates in our defense, and stands at God’s right hand to present our case.

No matter what happens to us, not matter where we are, we can never be lost to His love.  If we believe these overwhelming assurances, we will not be afraid of anything.

In Christ we are super-conquerors, and His love will protect us at all times.
