Nothing fazes us. Nothing can separate Jesus’s love from us.

I am sooo grateful for all your comments. The verses Megan is talking about- i will never forget. After sept 11 – there was a nationwide memorial service. A military chaplain got up and his “speech” was only scripture verses- nothing else. But he spoke them as if he was the author. He finished with the most powerful words in romans 8:39! My heart pounded with excitement. At a time we felt so desperately in the valley of the shadow of evil- God’s glorious promise of love was being declared with confidence and joy to millions! Maybe WE are supposed to use these same words now to minister! Let’s spread them everywhere! – and be ready to give an answer for our confidence and joy.

None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I’m absolutely convinced that nothing — nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable — absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.—Amen -
Micah 4:2-“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us about His ways so we may walk in His paths.”
A few days ago, the devotional My Utmost for His Highest had a reading about how God takes us to the mountain to experience Him, but it’s in the valleys where we have to walk out what we’ve learned—we can’t live daily on mountain top experiences. This verse in Micah reminded me of that—let’s go to the mountain. Let’s hear from God, every day even, so we can walk out His truth in a world that is groaning in labor pains (as Romans so accurately describes), eagerly awaiting return of Jesus. Micah’s prophecies haven’t all come true (unless it’s taken in a personal sense once one surrenders to Jesus), so we’re still waiting for that day when idols are destroyed, witchcraft won’t be practiced, and disobedience isn’t tolerated.
Romans 8: 25 “But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with patience.” Let’s wait eagerly in hope for our Lords return, seeking His teaching daily so we can walk in His paths in a world groaning from disobedience around us.

This was awesome for me to read today. The contrast from Micah to Romans of hearing how unfaithful the people were to God then to even read of Jesus in there was awesome!! Then to fast forward to Romans where Paul’s saying about Gods everlasting love!! That’s for us!!!! US !! He is for us! He fights for us. He drenches us in his grace and love and gives us ALL things … He has called us his elect .. He sets us aside and says you are mine. You are different. You are my peculiar treasure and I will never let you or anyone/thing get in the way of my love for you. He is truly a loving and good good father. He showed us Grace and mercy and showed it to the ppl in Micah.. And they didn’t even know what was to come in its full.. I loved this text. Great pairing and sweet reminder of Gods heart for me who is soooo far off from being a girl after his heart .. But he pursues me still. Love you ladies. Hope someone else can relate
