From Suffering to Glory Romans 8:18-28

~ Robert Spiller

PAUSE FOR THOUGHT

It’s impossible to be a disciple of Jesus Christ without identifying with Him in His suffering, in some countries Christians are being persecuted to the point of death. To live as Jesus did means serving others giving up my rights, resisting pressure to conform to the world. Nothing that we suffer for Christ compares to How much He suffered for us. 8:18

We are not left to our own resources to cope with suffering, even if we don’t know what to pray in a given situation God does, the Holy Spirit prays with us and for us for He always prays according to the will of God our Heavenly Father.

The promise of God is that if we ask anything in line with His will He will hear us. this should give us great confidence 1 John 5:14-15 For many Christians It takes much faith to pray “thy will be done” why is this? what about youself!

As we live lives submitted to the will of God because of the intercession of the Holy Spirit on our behalf we have the added assurance of the “all things working together for our good“ 8:26-28

MEMORY VERSE
For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who His children really are Romans 8:19 N.L.T.
