Love Love Love

“For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Romans 8 : 38 – 39

We read in Luke 22: 20 , “And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.” His blood shed for us. Under the new covenant. We are His people, ransomed by His blood.

We read yesterday about the freedom we now have in Christ. Today lets get a glimpse of His love which we know is incomprehensible.

Romans 8 : 35-37 , “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written,
“For your sake we are being killed all the day long;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us
” Verse 37 is a verse we hear very often “We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us” , I love the first half of the verse “In all these things” – Understand that nothing is so big or too much that can cause us to stray from His love. For in all these things be it tribulations or distress or danger or sword… we are MORE than conquerors THROUGH HIM who loved us. His love is sooo amazing. May we walk in the realization that it doesn’t matter what circumstance we are facing . We are never far from His love. And through that awesome love that God pours out on us , we are more than conquerors. So its not even just about conquering that tribulation or overcoming that circumstance. But that we would continue to draw closer to Him , to grow in Him , to walk in realization of His love.

We read in verses 38-39 , “For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

NOTHING can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Doesn’t this fascinate you – “nor things present nor things to come” !! If the devil has been whispering to you saying “That’s it.. you are beyond forgiveness , that’s it , there’s no way God will love you anymore” understand that the devil is a LIAR !! I am awestruck when I think “God you know every mistake I will make, you knew way before the world began itself of the times I would make the wrong choices but yet You choose to still love me so much and just embrace me with Your grace and mercy and love.” Amazing love. The devil tries to play these games saying “oh you are useless, why would God ever love you” , make sure you crush his head and say “you know what devil , His precious blood , His love makes me whole. And through Him I am now a child of God ! Heir in Christ” . When He ransomed us by His blood , He sealed our identity in Him !

Walk in the realization of His amazing incomprehensible love

God Bless
