  • Rom 8:28-39 : 28 And we know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. 29 For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those He predestined, He also called; and those He called, He also justified; and those He justified, He also glorified. 31 What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all—how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written: 'For Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.' 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor rulers, neither powers, neither things present nor things to come, 39 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.

Look at the distant stars; how high they are! 13 But you say, 'What does God know? Can He judge through such thick darkness?' 14 Clouds cover Him so He cannot see as He walks on the circle of the heavens. 15 Will you keep to the ancient path that wicked men have walked? 16 They were snatched away before their time, and their foundation was swept away by a flood. 17 They said to God, 'Depart from us! What can the Almighty do to us?' 18 Yet it was He who filled their houses with good things, though the counsel of the wicked is far from me. 19 The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent mock them. 20 Surely our enemies are destroyed, and fire has consumed their wealth. 21 Be reconciled with God now, and at peace with Him; this will bring good to you. 22 Accept instruction from His mouth and place His words in your heart. 23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored. If you remove injustice far from your tent, 24 and assign your gold to the dust, and the gold of Ophir to the rocks in the ravines, 25 then the Almighty will be your gold and your precious silver. 26 For then you will take delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God. 27 You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows. 28 Whatever you decide will succeed, and light will shine on your ways. 29 When people are humbled and you say, 'Lift them up,' God will save the downcast. 30 He will even deliver one who is not innocent, who will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.
