TODAY'S READING:

  • Romans 8:18 - 10:21

WORD OF THE DAY:

  • Saved

Paul reassures believers that present sufferings cannot compare to the glory awaiting us in Christ. Creation itself eagerly waits for the fulfillment of God’s plan, longing to be set free from corruption. The Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness, interceding for us in alignment with God’s will. Paul’s declaration in Romans 8:28 is a cornerstone of faith: “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.”He concludes with the unshakable truth: nothing—absolutely nothing—can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Through Him, we are more than conquerors, assured of victory over any trial or hardship.

Paul expresses deep anguish for his fellow Jews, who, despite their rich spiritual heritage, have largely rejected Jesus as the Messiah. He reminds us that true children of God are not determined by physical lineage but by faith in God’s promise.Paul uses examples like Isaac and Jacob to demonstrate God’s sovereignty in His plans and purposes. Salvation is not achieved through human effort but is a gift of God’s mercy, extended to both Jews and Gentiles. Paul grieves over those who miss this truth, emphasizing that faith, not works, is the foundation of righteousness.

Paul’s heartfelt longing is for Israel’s salvation, but he recognizes that many rely on their own righteousness rather than God’s provision through Christ. He explains that Christ is the culmination of the law, bringing righteousness to all who believe.Paul beautifully summarizes the gospel in Romans 10:9: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Salvation is available to all, regardless of background or status, and the message of Christ is to be proclaimed so that everyone may hear and believe.
