Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Faith does not carry a complex formula. Faith could not be simpler: confess and believe. All the massive benefits freely given by our Almighty God are based on this simple truth–confess and believe. Man’s problem is the little word–if. If is the most eternally destructive word possible. Many allow that tiny word to ultimately be their disaster. Eliminate if. Confess and believe. Simple.

Romans 9:30-32 “What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did nor pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not obtained it. Why not? Because they pursued it not be faith but as if it were by works.” It is a total waste of time, effort and thought to pursue God through good works. We cannot with all our beings try and buy our way into salvation. Jesus, our Savior, is our only way into God’s heart. A child-like faith, founded on trust is the magic key. No other key works. To think good works bring salvation will only result in continually failed frustration. The only answer to Faith or works is—Faith!

Romans 8:38-39 “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The love of God for you and me is sealed. Nothing can make us more content, secure and live in an ultra tight relationship with the Magnificent God of the Universe. What a privilege for me to write and for you to read this truth. Take a few moments to contemplate that wonderful wonder! Have a great weekend.

Romans 8:31-32 “What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all–how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?” God’s love for mankind is immeasurable. That only means–God’s love for you is not only huge–it is beyond your comprehension. He created you. He gives you your talents. He showers you with blessings. He will bring you to Himself for all eternity. The same is true for me and every other person of true faith. What a magnificent and loving God we love.

Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” We love our God. That love is received by God who in turn showers blessings on us. When you shower the unavoidable result is your entire body getting affected with wet water. You enjoy a warm thorough shower. Enjoy the warm shower of blessings given to you because of the great love of God. Love Him with all your heart.
