Is there anything that can keep you from the love of Christ? Check out what Paul wrote in Romans 8 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
There is no thing that can come between the redeemed and our redeemer. Our hearts, our minds and our very beings are inseparably saturated with the love of Christ. It is a part of our spiritual DNA. This is the key to understanding why we are victorious; why we are winners and over comers. When we recognize the importance of Christ's sacrifice; the tearing of the Vail; the execution of the New Will & Testament we can be so very confident in knowing that no matter what we go through, where we have been or where we are there is no thing in heaven, in earth or under the earth that can separate us from the love of God that we have obtained the right to through Christ Jesus.
Here in then is where our faith is made sure. Once we trust that Christ lived, bled and died; rose with all power and reigns forever more to return for His people, once we accept this in our Christian walk, there is absolutely nothing from God's Word that we can't accept and trust in absolute confidence. Trust that although what we sense with our natural senses may let us down and disappoint us, what we know with our faith will pull us through and anchor us.
We have a hope that is sure and certain bought by Christ's blood; the ultimate sacrifice that keeps wafting up to God's thrown. It is why God's mercy covers us while we go through the process of developing a strong worship relationship; while we come into the knowledge that God is our source.
Be encouraged today and know that you are glued to, forever tied to, and tethered to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords; the creator of all things and giver of all good gifts. He is our friend, our savior, our comforter, El Shaddai--the all sufficient God, El Elyon--the most High God, El Olam--the Everlasting God, El Channun--the Gracious God, Jehovah Jireh--the Lord who provides,
Jehovah Rapha--the Lord who heals, Jehovah Shalom--the lord our peace, Jehovah Shammad--the ever present Lord, Jehovah Saboath--the Lord of Hosts, Jehovah Ra-ah--the Lord who is my shepherd. The Bible says He is the great I AM. He says of Himself, "I am that I am" In other words there isn't anything that exists that isn't saturated with Him because He generated all with the mighty Word of creation. Nothing can separate you from the Love of God because He did it all just for you. You are His child. You are His chosen. You are a peculiar people grafted into a royal priesthood through Christ's sacrifice. You are the head and not the tail. You are above and not beneath. Be encouraged and lift up your heads. The Word has been bought to you to let you know that you belong to Him. He paid for you and bought you with the highest price. He didn't bring you this far to leave you or to let you down.
Call on Him in times of trouble. Worship Him at all times. Bless His name. Reverence Him. Honor Him and know of a certainty that there is absolutely nothing that can separate you from His love.
