Meditate on It!

God's Love!
Come with me as we explore revelations to Paul on God's Love! We shall run through the verses engraved in the letter to the Roman Church.

Romans 8:31 - 39
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for Us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes 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? As it is written:

For your sake, we are killed all day long; we are accounted for the slaughter [Psalm 44:22]

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present not things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord

My Response and Recommendations!
I notice in the passage above one word feeds into another to paint out what manner of Love God has install for each of Us. How do you respond to these great revelation. I would recommend two things

1. 1 John 4:19 "We love Him because He loved us First"
2. Romans 12:10 "Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;" & 1 Thessalonians 4:9 "But concerning brotherly love you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another"

Whats your response to God's love for You? Bless you!
