Romans Eight is Great

I am blessed to be part of a Bible study in my neighborhood. We are currently studying the book of Romans. The gentleman who leads us each week thought that Romans would be a great book for us to study because it is so applicable to our current times.

Ever since we began our study back in July, verses from Romans have been springing up in my life all over the place. Verses from Romans have been showing up in my social media feeds, in my daily devotionals, and my meditations. It is funny how that works!

Anyway, a few weeks ago we studied chapter eight. As I was reading through this relatively short chapter, verses that I have heard often and that have become commonplace to me jumped off the page at me. Verse after verse. Honestly, I was taken-aback at how many I know and love come from this one chapter! And, that is why I am here to share them all with you.

I am sure all of these are familiar to you as well. Here are the ones I am referring to:
  • Romans 8:1-2 - Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
  • Romans 8: 28 - And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
  • Romans 8: 31 - What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
  • Romans 8: 37 - No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 
  • Romans 8: 38-39 - 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 Christ Jesus our Lord.
I just love all of these, don't you??

There are only 39 verses in the whole chapter--and it just chock-full of goodness and truth. If you need a quick pick-me-up, read this chapter. It, like our Father God, is so, so good!
