What Then Shall We Say?—Part 3

“If God is for us, who can be against us?”  Let us consider for a moment how God is for us.  He is for us supremely in the acts of redemption mentioned in Romans 8:28-30.  Since the Lord has determined to do all this for us, what cause have we to fear?  Our God is always and irrevocably for us!  We must lay up this great truth in our hearts, for it is the ground and foundation of our relationship to Him.  We must live as those who believe that “God exists and that He rewards those who seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6).  Believing that God is for us in this way has a profound influence on every aspect of our lives.  We must get it rooted and settled in our hearts.  If we do, it will fill us with courage and peace in the most difficult circumstances.
