How amazing is it that NOTHING can EVER separate us from God?

No, there’s nothing you could do that’d ever separate you from God. Nothing I could do either. There’s nothing anyone can ever do to separate us from God. Take a look at what Paul says in Romans...

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, 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.” (Romans 8:38-39)

Not even heavenly powers or anyone or anything in all creation. Not even Thee Creator wants to be separated from His Creation.

And God Himself promises never leave us.

“‘...Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’” (Hebrews 13:5)

“Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” (Genesis 28:15)

He again promises to be right be our side 3 times in Deuteronomy:

“Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)

“Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.” (Deuteronomy 31:8)

“For the LORD your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon you or destroy you or forget the solemn covenant he made with your ancestors.” (Deuteronomy 4:31)

Yet, when we are afraid He will comfort us and even when we’re afraid of Him—there’s no where we can go to be away/apart from Him (not that we’d want to) as the Psalmist wrote...

“Where can I go from your Spirit?

    Where can I flee from your presence?

If I go up to the heavens, you are there;

    if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

If I rise on the wings of the dawn,

    if I settle on the far side of the sea,

even there your hand will guide me,

    your right hand will hold me fast.

If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will hide me

    and the light become night around me,’

even the darkness will not be dark to you;

    the night will shine like the day,

    for darkness is as light to you.” (Psalm 139: 7-12)

There are numerous other verses where God promises not to leave us and most are combined with the command “do not be afraid.” I find relief in this fact. The fact that my God loves me so much He not only forgives me but saved me and unified Himself to me. That He won’t allow anything to ever come between us.

Friends, we’re all loved and protected by our God. He will never leave you or allow anyone or anything to come between you. He will never not leave you. He will never leave you, even if you leave... remember the parable of the prodigal son Jesus told? (See Luke chapter 15)

So don’t run and hide from our Father, run into His open arms that promise not to let you go.

What am I, Lord, that you should think of me?

“How cool is it that the same God that created mountains and oceans and galaxies looked at you and thought the world needed one of you too.”

— Unknown

“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!” (Psalm 8:3-6)

I love this quote & verse! It squeezes my heart and makes me feel so loved by my Father, my Creator. To know that He chose to create us. He didn’t need to but He wanted to! He loved us even before He made us and as if that weren’t enough He made us in His Own Image!

“Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” (Genesis 1:26-28)

I’m forever honored, grateful, awestruck. Not just that He made mankind, but that even after that He looked at all He made and thought the world needed one of me too. He made us each unique, beautiful, and with a purpose.

"He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace." (2 Timothy 1:9)

“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” (Psalm 139:14)

So not only did He create us but He chose us. Time and time again our God chooses us.

“For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will—to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.” (Ephesians 1:4-6)

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” (Ephesians 2:10)

God makes no mistakes.

“For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.” (Colossians 1:16)

The next time you think you’re not enough or you’re focusing on your flaws and on what you’re not. Remember HE made you and chose to make you in the first place.

God loves you!

Spread God’s Word

“Then I heard the Lord say, ‘Whom shall I send? Who will be our messenger?’ I answered, “I will go! Send me!’” (‭Isaiah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬)

We are chosen to be God’s messengers. To spread His Word and share the Good News that Jesus is alive!!! He is risen!!!!!!!! GOD’S NOT DEAD!!!!

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." (1 Peter 2:9)

If it weren’t for the messengers who were willing and ready to spread the joy of the Gospel—we might not know Jesus. And if we did, we might’ve not heard about His miraculous works.

We then need to think of our future generations that need to know our God. Our Rock. To continue teaching our kids, and teaching them to teach their kids, about Jesus. The Son of Man and Savior of our souls, and their souls.

Not just our children but our neighbors. That includes random strangers, those who are rude to you, even those who do things you don’t agree with, the rich, the poor, the elderly, women, men, and children. Everyone is your neighbor.

God chose you. He chose me. He chose each and every one of us to be His Messengers. Let’s each do our part to spread His Word into a world that is in desperate need of it.

“One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: ‘Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.’” (Acts 18:9)
