JOURNAL/FOR OR AGAINST

"THE LORD will be PASSING by"    1 KINGS 19:11

We are often in NEED in this journey we call life-IN those moments of need-WE KNOW God will be sending HIS very own SPIRIT to speak for us and to us-FOR he NEVER abandons his chidren

AS HE-the spirit passes by right now-ALL we can do is bow our heads in reverence and gratitude

IT is a GREAT day to be ALIVE in GOD 's very own love FOR us and to FOLLOW his spirit when he speaks to us




















FOR OR AGAINST




IF God is for us
What does it matter
Who or what is against us
For all the powers
In this universe
Cannot standup
To the POWER of GOD'S LOVE


“And we know
That all things
WORK TOGETHER for God
To them that love God
To them
Who are called
According to HIS PURPOSE” Romans 8:28


So when the world
CONSPIRES to knock us down
To HIT us
With everything it's got


IT IS GOD
Who will stand up
For us


WHAT else do we need?


“IF GOD is for us
WHO can be against us?” Romans 8:31


“IT is God that JUSTIFIES US” Romans 8:33


World
Hit us with your best shot
You are not
Going to take us down


“For ALL THINGS
Work together for those
WHO LOVE HIM”


Our justification
Comes from God
NOT from this world


GOD SAYS
He will love us
No matter what


“For I am persuaded
That neither death-nor life
Nor angels-nor principalities
Nor powers-Nor things present
Nor things to come


Nor height-nor depth
Nor any other creature
Shall be able
To separate us
From the Love of God
Which is
In Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:38-39


Got that
We are a SUCCESS
BY THE POWER of God's love
For our HOPE
IS IN GOD
Not in the things
Of this world


We are
Justified by God
And our hope
Lies in God alone
WHERE our justification comes from


JUSTIFICATION means
To be FREED from guilt or blame
BY FAITH




God is for us
He lived for us
He died for us


“For we maintain
That a man
Is justified by faith
Apart from observing the law


“IS God the God
of the Jews only
Is he not the God
Of the GENTILES too
Yes-of Gentiles too” Romans 3:8-28-29


God is FOR US
And our hope
Comes from God alone


And even though
We sometimes
Get confused along the way
GOD picks us back up
And puts us
On the ROAD TO HOPE
The road of faith
The road of love


“For we are SAVED
BY HOPE
But hope that is seen
Is not hope


Who hopes
For what he already has


But if we hope
For what we do not
Yet have
WE WAIT for it patiently” Romans 8:24-25


GOD IS FOR US
And for now
That is
ALL we need to KNOW
