Habakkuk 2

Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

Nothing Can Separate Us

I read Romans 8:28-39. This is one of the greatest and most precious promises of Scripture which applies to those whom God is for, who are in Christ Jesus by believing in him, who love God, and who have been called according to his purposes; who walk not after the flesh, but according to the Spirit, not in deliberate and habitual sin against the Lord, but in walks of holiness and in obedience to our Lord and to his will for our lives (see Romans 8:1-27). Nothing and no one can separate us from Christ’s love. Amen! No matter what we go through, Jesus will always be there for us. 


Even when we fail him, and we fall into sin’s deceptive ways once again, he is there to pick us back up and to restore us if we will repent of our sins and choose to walk in obedience to him once again. He will never leave us nor forsake us who love and obey him. We can always count on him! He is completely faithful to all his promises. No matter what tragedies in life we face, what difficulties, and/or what seemingly impossible situations we may encounter, he will always be there for us to comfort, encourage, strengthen and bring much healing to our hearts and bodies. Amen!


In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loves us. How are we conquerors? We are victorious over sin and the effects of life’s difficulties on our minds, emotions and bodies when we choose to apply the truths of Scripture, and the teachings and remedies of Christ, to our sin problems and to our human weaknesses, trusting the Lord Jesus daily to work in and through us for his honor and glory and praise. And this requires that we deny self, die daily to sin, and follow our Lord in obedience. For if we don’t, we will not inherit eternal life with God (Luke 9:23-26).


Nothing Can Separate Us  


An Original Work / March 28, 2013

Based off Romans 8:28-39


Nothing can separate us 

From Christ’s love now within us:

Not trouble, hardship, nor famine,

Nor danger, nor sword.

No, in all of these things

We are more than conquerors!


For your sake we face hardship.

We are sheep to be slaughtered.

I am convinced that death, 

Nor life, nor anything else

Will separate us from 

The love of God now in Christ.


What, then, shall we say to this?

God for us: who against us?

He who did not spare His Son

But gave Him for us all – 

How will He not, with Him,

Graciously give us all things?


Who brings a charge against us?

God justifies His chosen.

Who is He that condemns?

Christ Jesus, died, rose again.

He’s at the right hand of God,

Interceding for us.
