God is "For" Us!

 For Thursday, August 13, 2020.

Romans 8:31b NLT: “If God is for us, who can ever be against us?” 

Sending his Son Jesus, we know the lengths God went to rescue mankind and equip us for victory over sin and death. Who can doubt that God is for us?

Beware of false prophets, claiming God is on their side, when he is not. Terrorists and cult leaders fall into this category. Just because an evil person claims God is with him does not make it so! The first word in today’s scripture is the key – “IF!” Rest assured that God is not FOR these criminals, and we ALL should be against them! 

Believers have self-worth from doing the right things for the right reasons. We’re good with it, and God is good with it. If Father God is for us, what does it matter if others are against us? One good person plus God makes an unconquerable majority!

It cannot be denied that for those who are in Jesus Christ, God is FOR them! That’s the character of God, the “God-trend!” 

Blessings to you all today!
