SAFE IN THE ARMS OF JESUS

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.  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 8:35-39 KJV

Nothing and nobody can separate us from God’s love because we are safe in the arms of Jesus.  God and Jesus love us unconditionally and They will always love us.  There is nothing we can ever do that will make Them stop loving us.  We have a loving compassionate Heavenly Father and Saviour.

The next time someone tells you that God and Jesus don’t love you or satan tries to convince you that you aren’t loved, remember the cross and the anguish and excruciating pain that Jesus endured because He loves you so much.  I submit to you on the authority of the Word of God that you are loved.

When Jesus was crucified on the cross for your sins and for my sins, God had to turn away from His Son because Jesus had taken our sins on Himself and God can’t look at sin.  The heart of our precious Saviour and the heart of our Heavenly Father were broken that day as Jesus hung on the cross for our sins.

Never forget that there is nobody or nothing that can separate you from the love of Christ.  You are safe in His loving protective arms.  Allow Jesus to hold you close and protect you.
