God Is Our Protector!

Here are some truths about the work of God and the nature of God:

He is present everywhere.
He created everything that exists.
He sustains everything that exists.
He is loving.
He is gracious.
He is patient.
He is kind.
He is just.
He is truth.
He knows everything.
His power is absolute.
Everything that exists is under His power and authority.

With these truths in mind, now consider this incredibly encouraging passage of scripture: “…If God is for us, who can ever be against us?” Romans 8:31

If the being who is described by the truths listed above cares about us, loves us and wants what is best for us—in other words, if He is for us—then whoever might be against us will ultimately fail.

So, rejoice and be glad. Let’s look to God as our protector!

Who Can Possibly Be Against Us?


There’s a statement in Romans 8:31 that contains a very encouraging logical conclusion. The passage: “If God is for us, who can ever be against us?”  Think about it: If there is an All-powerful, Creator God—and I believe that there is.  And if this God loves us and cares about us—and the Bible states that He does.  Then who could ever be against us in a way that would have any real effectiveness? Answer: No one! Cool, huh?
