Nothing and no one …

Here’s what I’ve been meditating on this week …

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

For God so loved the world (including me) that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

God demonstrates his own love for me in this: While I was still a sinner, Christ died for me.  (Romans 5:8)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

If I confess my sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive me my sins and purify me from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

For it is by grace I have been saved, through faith—and this is not from myself, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that I can’t boast.  (Ephesians 2:8-9)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

He has forgiven me and removed my sin as far away as the east is from the west. (Psalm 103:12)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

Because I am a son, God sent the Spirit of his Son into my heart, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father." (Galatians 4:6)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

There is therefore now no condemnation for me because I am in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

If I am faithless, he will remain faithful.  (2 Timothy 2:13)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

I am more than a conqueror through Him who loved me. (Romans 8:37)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

I am running the race with perseverance and fixing my eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of my faith.  (Hebrews 12: 1-2)

 

Nothing and no one shall separate me from the love of Christ.

 

 

Romans 8:31 – 39  “What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:

“For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
