Who then will condemn us? Will Christ? No! For he is the one who died for us and came back to life again for us and is sitting at the place of higher honor next to God, pleading for us there in heaven.
Who then can ever keep Christ’s love from us? When we have trouble or calamity, when we are hunted down or destroyed, is it because he doesn’t love us anymore? And if we are hungry or penniless or in danger or threatened with death, has God deserted us?
Overwhelming victory is our through Christ who loved us enough to die for us. For I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can’t, and life can’t. The angels won’t, and all the powers of hell itself cannot keep God’s love away. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, or where we are—high above the sky, or in the deepest ocean—nothing will ever be able to separate us Jesus Christ when he died for us. (Romans 8:34, 35, 37-39).
God says, “Not only do I want to bring you a miracle, I also want to build your character.” When you totally rely on the integrity of God’s Word and trust Him in a trial, you will acquire maturity in your Christian walk. You must be patient, never diverting your eyes from what God has promised. Then you will become “perfect” or “mature”, and lack for nothing.
Knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:3-4).
A moment with Scripture:
Joseph’s brothers return to Egypt. - Genesis 43:1-34
A promise and a warning - Exodus 23:20-33
