There's a verse of scripture, Romans 8:32. I've been rattling around this verse for a couple of weeks now.
"He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all. How will He not also, with Him, freely give us all things." The concept that Paul is trying to teach us here is that if he already gave us the most important, most valuable, thing that he could ever give us -- the thing that is of the highest value to God is His son Jesus. Yes? -- If he gave us that. Then what could possibly be of more value to the Lord that he would not give it to us? No, He has demonstrated that He's willing to give it ALL for you and me. Every good thing is ours, freely given by God. AMEN. I want to connect this idea of God freely giving to the fact that He so dearly loves you and me. And this was something that I really felt God led me into as I've been meditating on this verse. That it's not just because God's a great giver. And He is! But it is because He loves us so much. So, what good thing do you need from your heavenly Father who so dearly Loves you? Come boldly to the One who sacrificed it all so that He could make a way for you to dwell with Him forever and lavish on you the wonders of His kingdom! Study Scripture for today is Romans 8:32. Just sit in that verse for a while and see what kind of things the Holy Spirit begins to reveal to you.

Because, the issue with our conscience is that when we try and self justify we get a nagging circle of justifying ourself, feeling good because I had a good reason for it, and then coming back around to the guilt and shame. And we'll go through this cycle of things. But if we will adequately recognize that thing as already being punished in the body of Jesus Christ, then your conscience won't pester you about it. So, Christ took your sin to the cross. It was condemned there. You will never be punished for it and you can put your conscience to rest by believing and confessing this truth. Study Scriptures for today: Hebrews 10:22 Your conscience demands punishment for sin. Give it the punishment that Christ took on your behalf!

Some of us are looking for God's power in our lives. We're looking for power for salvation.
We're looking for power to be transformed into God's image more and more in our walk and the way that we live. Some of us are looking for God's power for deliverance from addiction, from sin and bondage to things. Some of us are looking for power from God's kingdom to deliver a loved one from illness or other things that the enemy would bring into their life. The power is in the Gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ, and it's released into our life through simple faith in God for His unearned favor through the work of the cross of Jesus Christ. It sounds too easy, so simple it's almost silly. Try it and see it work in your life! Believe today that you have the favor of God in every area of your life, not because of your effort or good works, but because Jesus took your sins to the cross and you are forever forgiven and right with Him. Romans 1:16-17 Have you ever seen the Gospel of Jesus move powerfully in your life or the life of someone you know?

(Romans 8:1)
One of the things that I like to talk about a lot is that word "now," because whatever "now" moment you're in, there is no condemnation! This is very good news because there are moments of failure and there are moments of where we feel like we're doing really good. None of that is affecting the right-standing that we have with Almighty God. No, those who are in Christ have completely set aside their own efforts, their own works, to have His righteousness as a gift. And that right-standing, that righteousness, that perfection that Christ gives us, it's His perfection. He gives it to us as a gift. That perfection that we have in Christ cannot be tainted by our own efforts or our works. Not the good works or the bad. It's perfectly perfect, and we get it free through faith in Jesus christ. Study Scriptures for today: Romans 8:1-4 Are you able to see yourself this way? As the one who is NOT condemned because Jesus Christ took your condemnation for you? What about in the moment of your bad decisions? Can you still see yourself as not condemned even in the midst of failure?
