Great News: Nothing Can Ever Separate Us From God's Love

One of the most wonderful and encouraging statements regarding God’s love for us is found in the book of Romans chapter 8, verses 35-39.  Part of the beauty of what is communicated in these passages is the idea of the unfailing invincibility of God’s love for you and me. 

We are told that “nothing can ever separate us from God’s love.”  And then specific examples are mentioned:  neither death nor life can separate us from His love.  Neither angels nor demons can separate us.  Neither “our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow” can separate us.  The “powers of hell” are mentioned—they cannot separate us from God’s love either.

God makes it absolutely clear that “nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the Lord of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

If you’re saying: “Wow!  That is encouraging.  That is inspiring.  I feel so good when I am made aware of those truths.”

Good!  That’s why I took the time to remind you. 

You are loved.

God Will Never Stop Loving Us

God cannot lie.  It’s not that He could lie if He wanted to but He chooses not to lie.  It’s that lying is an impossibility for God because Truth is part of His nature. [See Hebrews 6:18]   I’m bringing this up because God promises in His word that He will never stop loving us. [Romans 8:35-39]  Let that sink in for a moment: You and I will never stop being loved by God!  That’s His promise to us. This is wonderful news, isn’t it?
