Amazing!

“He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” Romans 8:32

This verse is dangerous in the hands of a charlatan and used too freely by prosperity gospel promoters. What does it really mean? The context of Romans 8 tells us clearly. God is good, always good. He has redeemed us from the curse of sin. He has called us His children. He has given us His Spirit. He has given us eternal life. But those things are always being challenged by the devil. Can we still count on the goodness of God when we are almost overwhelmed by evil? Yes.

The next verse says no one can bring a charge against us before God. His Son pleads our case. No one can take eternal life from us. They can take our life and speed us to God, but they cannot take our eternal life. They can steal our earthy goods but not God’s promises. They are certain, sure, and eternal. These things He gives us freely no matter what happens to us.

Dear Father, Help me trust your ever secure care. Amen.
