Romans 8:31-38 ESV
….”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 graciously give us all things. Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died – more than that, who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. 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 day long; we are regarded as sheep for the slaughtered.” No in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus or Lord.
In a world where everything seems to be getting more and more evil, there is hope. There is someone who will listens to all the rage and anguish in our hearts over the physical and spiritual condition within us and within the world. Listen up! If you are reading this post be encouraged, because the LORD Almighty has not abandoned the you but rather He is calling all of you who straddle the fence between serving HIM and the world, saying, ” Do you surrender your whole heart – your whole life – even your flesh to Serve Him first and put HIM above all things in your heart and in your life?” I will say it again, ” If God is for you than who can be against you?
Are you willing to Choose to surrender to the Lord in all things?
In relationships? At the job? At home? In your thoughts? In your attitudes? At school? Are you ready to go against the societal norms in order to not only tell others about the LORD but LIVE the LIFE HE is calling you to live. Are you prepared in your heart and mind to be a committed to the LORD not matter what HE tells you to do?
What if He tells to travel the country as He directs you my friends, the Kapusniks, are doing this with their ministry . The LORD laid it upon their hearts to leave all that they knew at home and pack up to go as Abraham did to where ever He would lead them. Check out what they are doing and follow them as they serve the LORD.
DON’T FORGET THIS: If the LORD called you to follow HIM, He will guide you in all things and as a believer in HIM; YOU are called to make disciples of all peoples’ , of every language and of every nation on the earth for Jesus! ( See Matthew 28:18-20) If you are a follower of Christ that is a Christian, each of us has a ministry. It is not just the pastors, teachers, elders, prophets, evangelists who are qualified to do it. It is anyone who has called up Jesus to be their LORD and Savior. You could be a husband or wife, a stay at home parent or in the workforce. It does not matter, if you believe in JESUS , you are all ministers of the good news to all those who are around.
The LORD is with each of us no matter where we are in this earth! Be blessed in knowing that HE IS WITH YOU and nothing and nobody can separate you from HIM!
