God Is For Us!

 

[Graphic of a sign]


“If God is for us, who can be against us?”
—Romans 8:31b

As children of God, through the life-transforming power of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, we definitely have certain benefits.

In writing to the Christians at Rome, the Apostle Paul reminded them of some of those key benefits in Romans 8:28-32:

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

As we begin this new day, let’s keep in the forefront of our minds that God is for us. He always has our best interests in mind.

We can go out into the needy world today knowing that God has our back—and our sides and front, too!
