God is for us so who can be against us?

Scripture: What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?" Romans 8:31-32

Reflection: How lucky are we as Christians to have a God who loves us so much that he came down and shared in our humanity, taking on the role as life of a carpenter and being part of a family for 30 years before a ministry for 3 years that CHANGED the course of History forever. We have a God who is for us and wants to be our closest friend to carry us trough the trials of life and help us rejoice at the times of great blessing. No matter what phase you are in during your journey of faith, remember that The Lord loves you like you are his only child and he wants you to be happy and experience his great love. No matter what you have done, you are worthy because he makes us worthy by his cross and resurrection! It is a free gift to all. What a wonderful thing, that we could not do anything to deserve it, but that Jesus did it all for us and all that is required is that we believe and live a life that shows we care and love both God and neighbor.

Listen to the Lord for he wants to be your closest friend. Try your best to shut out the negative voices that you hear from people around you. Today is the day to flip your life upside down. Shut out the voice of the enemy who causes you to doubt your God and tune into the station that is filled with love and compassion. Jesus died for you friend and would do it all over again if it was just for you. Your life had great worth and meaning. It is time to get up and do something. You can do this and God knows you will need his help and will not allow you to be alone. Not only that friend, Jesus said, "I came so that they might have life and have it to the full." (John 10:10) God doesn't want us to simply survive, but to thrive and have an abundant life. You can receive this great gift for free thanks to the grave he has bestowed. I encourage you to shake the dust from your feet and get in the game today. It is not too late, God loves you no matter what because he created you and you are his child. Friend, today is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice!

Prayer: Father God, we know that you are by our side. Help us to not listen to any nay Sayers or to the negative voices of the enemy. Allow us to believe that you truly want what is best for us. Inspire us through your Holy Spirit to fulfill our destiny. Thank you for dying for us so we might life and not only life but an abundance of blessings on earth. Give us a boost of faith and energy so we may live more positively and with our purpose in mind. We ask this through your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen
