While We Have Nothing, We Possess Everything

Romans 8:32

He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?

Is it hope that we need today?  Are we seeking hope to relieve the pain that we are suffering?  Are we seeking hope to relieve the concern over the financial woes that are hounding us?  Or, perhaps, are we seeking hope to ease the torment of conflict in a relationship that we are feeling?

In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.  There is nothing in all of creation that can separate us from the love of God.  He sent the fallen angels from His kingdom forever because of their sins.  He flooded the earth because of the violence and evil of all mankind.  He destroyed all the people of Sodom and Gomorrah because of their wickedness. Yet He spared us from our sins by giving us His Son.  Through His Son, He provides us with all our temporal needs and all of our spiritual blessings.  It is all given freely according to His good will and pleasure.

For while we are without strength, all that we need is provided through Our Savior.  While we are sorrowful, we can always rejoice. While we are poor, we can experience His abundant riches.  While we may have nothing, we can possess everything through the sacrificial offering of the Son of Almighty God, Jesus Christ.

Let us go boldly and confidently to the throne of Our Heavenly Father.  Let us celebrate His desire to meet all of our needs through His all-sufficient Son, Jesus Christ.  Let us rejoice in His grace.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we thank You for providing us with all of our needs, both temporal and spiritual. We exalt the name of Jesus for providing us with that which we do not deserve and could never earn except through His death for our sins.  We praise You, Father, for the hope and assurance that we have through Our Savior. He is all that we need.  We pray that through Your grace and through the aid of the Holy Spirit, we will find the peace and strength that we need in all circumstances.  We ask all these things in the name of the Blessed Hope and Assurance, Jesus Christ.
