NOTHING CAN GET BETWEEN US AND CHRIST’S LOVE AND FORGIVENESS
11-6-23 VIDEO WE HAVE LOST WHO WE ARE 2
Nothing means- not any thing – in this world, or any other world. Nothing in our fear-based imagination. No part no how, not one thing, never, at now time, nix, not, zip. But sometimes we think our nothing is greater than Jesus ability to love us. Nothing can stop us because he loves us. God’s love and forgiveness for us makes nothing impossible for us.
ROM 8:31 All these things point to one conclusion, God is for us! Who can prevail against us?
32 The gift of his Son is the irrefutable evidence of God’s heart towards us. He held nothing in reserve; but freely gave everything we could ever wish to have; this is what our joint sonship is all about.
33 God has identified us, who can disqualify us? His word is our origin. No-one can point a finger; he declared us innocent.
34 What further ground can there possibly be to condemn mankind? In his death he faced our judgment; in his resurrection he reveals our righteousness; the implications cannot be undone! He now occupies the highest seat of authority as the executive of our redemption in the throne room of God.
35 What will it take to distance us from the love of Christ? You name any potential calamity: intense pressure of the worst possible kind, claustrophobia, persecution, destitution, loneliness, extreme exposure, life-threatening danger, or war? MIRROR
Rom 8:37 None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us.
38 I’m absolutely convinced that nothing — nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow,
39 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. MSG
▼▼▼
ROM 8:37 On the contrary, in the thick of these things our triumph remains beyond dispute. His love has placed us above the reach of any onslaught.
38 This is my conviction; no threat whether it be in death or life; be it celestial messengers, demon powers or political principalities, nothing known to us at this time, or even in the unknown future;
39 no dimension of any calculation in time or space, nor any device yet to be invented, has what it takes to separate us from the love of God unveiled in our Lord, Jesus Christ. MIRROR
Rom 8:1 With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter into Christ’s being-here-for-us no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud.
2 A new power is in operation. The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificently cleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death. MSG
▼▼▼
ROM 8:1 Now the decisive conclusion is this: in Christ, every bit of condemning evidence against us is cancelled.
2 The law of the Spirit is the liberating force of life in Christ. This leaves me with no further obligation to the law of sin and death. Spirit has superseded the sin enslaved senses as the principle law of our lives. MIRROR
▼▼▼
Romans 8:1So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One.
2 For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death.
3For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. Yet God sent us his Son in human form to identify with human weakness. Clothed with humanity, God’s Son gave his body to be the sin-offering so that God could once and for all condemn the guilt and power of sin.
4So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit! TPT
2 Sam 7:19 But that’s nothing compared to what’s coming, for you’ve also spoken of my family far into the future, given me a glimpse into tomorrow, my Master God!
20 What can I possibly say in the face of all this? You know me, Master God, just as I am.
21 You’ve done all this not because of who I am but because of who you are — out of your very heart! — but you’ve let me in on it. MSG
1 Kings 5:4 But now God has provided peace all around — no one against us, nothing at odds with us. MSG

Ps 40:5 The world’s a huge stockpile of God-wonders and God-thoughts. Nothing and no one comes close to you! I start talking about you, telling what I know, and quickly run out of words. Neither numbers nor words account for you. MSG

Acts 2:25 David said it all: I saw God before me for all time. Nothing can shake me; he’s right by my side. MSG
Rom 4:17 We call Abraham “father” not because he got God’s attention by living like a saint, but because God made something out of Abraham when he was a nobody. Isn’t that what we’ve always read in Scripture, God saying to Abraham, “I set you up as father of many peoples”? Abraham was first named “father” and then became a father because he dared to trust God to do what only God could do: raise the dead to life, with a word make something out of nothing.
18 When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw he couldn’t do but on what God said he would do. And so he was made father of a multitude of peoples. God himself said to him, “You’re going to have a big family, Abraham!” MSG
Rom 5:5 Such hope never disappoints or deludes or shames us, for God’s love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us. AMP ▼▼▼
ROM 5:5 This kind of hope does not disappoint; the gift of the Holy Spirit completes our every expectation and ignites the love of God within us like an artesian well. MIRROR
Rom 8:18 [But what of that?] For I consider that the sufferings of this present time (this present life) are not worth being compared with the glory that is about to be revealed to us and in us and for us and conferred on us! AMP

Romans 8:18I am convinced that any suffering we endure is less than nothing compared to the magnitude of glory that is about to be unveiled within us. TPT
John 3:18 He who believes in Him [who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him] is not judged [he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation — he incurs no damnation]; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already [he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence] because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ’s name.] AMP
▼▼▼
John 3:18 Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him. MSG
Rom 8:12 So don’t you see that we don’t owe this old do-it-yourself life one red cent.
13 There’s nothing in it for us, nothing at all. The best thing to do is give it a decent burial and get on with your new life.
14 God’s Spirit beckons. There are things to do and places to go! MSG
1 JOHN 4:11 Loved Ones! If this is true about God’s love for us, it is equally true of his love in us for others!
12 God was never visible to anyone until Jesus brought him into full view; now your love does the same! Our love for one another is evidence of God’s seamless union with mankind as witnessed in his love perfected within us! MIRROR
Romans 4:6Even King David himself speaks to us regarding the complete wholeness that comes inside a person when God’s powerful declaration of righteousness is heard over our life. Apart from our works, God’s work is enough.
7Here’s what David says: What happy fulfillment is ahead for those whose rebellion has been forgiven and whose sins are covered by blood.
8What happy progress comes to them when they hear the Lord speak over them,
“I will never hold your sins against you!” TPT
