Romans 12:1-3 I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of GOD, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to GOD, which is your Spiritual worship! Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of GOD, what is good and acceptable and perfect..................,..... Having the eyes of of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which HE has called you, what are the riches of HIS glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of HIS power toward us who believe , according to the working of HIS great might that HE worked in CHRIST when HE raised HIM from the dead and seated HIM at HIS right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age to come....(Eph 1:18-21) for HE has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the Kingdom of HIS BELOVED SON, in whom we have redemption the forgiveness of sins. HE is the image of the invisible GOD, the firstborn of ALL creation. For by HIM all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities-ALL things were created through HIM and for HIM.....(Col 1:13-16) so what shall we say to these things? If GOD is for us- who can be against us! HE did not spare HIS own SON but gave HIM up for us all, how will HE not give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against GODS elect? It is GOD who justifies. Who is to condemn? CHRIST JESUS is the ONE who died- more than that who was raised- who is at the right hand of GOD, who indeed is interceding for us! Who shall separate us from the love of CHRIST? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written: for your sake we are being killed all the day long, and are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered...no, in all these things we are more than conquerors through HIM who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present or things to come, nor powers, nor height or depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of GOD in CHRIST JESUS our LORD....(Rom 8:31-39) brethren, whatever it is you are facing today- let these scriptures comfort you and give you peace in knowing what CHRIST accomplished for you and who you are in HIM.....and how nothing can separate you from HIM or keep you from the glorious promises to come in the coming ages- and how eternal life is yours.... And none of the sufferings in this present age can compare to the Glory that will be revealed to us!!! Everything you endure here in this age will be worth what GOD has planned in eternity!!!!! Meditate on this for this is true and trustworthy!!!!.... Let the love of CHRIST dwell in your heart and give you peace...............
