Key verse: 32
NIV
More Than Conquerors
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things?(A) If God is for us,(B) who can be against us?(C) 32 He who did not spare his own Son,(D) 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(E) against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns?(F) No one. Christ Jesus who died(G)—more than that, who was raised to life(H)—is at the right hand of God(I) and is also interceding for us.(J)

1. God did not spare his own son (31-32)
God works for good in us because he loves us. He showed his love by giving up his own son for sinners like us. God saved us from sin at such a great cost to himself. He let his one and only Son suffer and die on the cross for me and you. Not only so, God continues to love us. He knows what we need and gives us all things necessary to help us grow in holiness and in the image of Jesus.
2. No one can condemn God's chosen ones (33-34)
We are weak and we struggle to overcome the sinful nature. God does not condemn us when we struggle. So we should not condemn ourselves nor be crushed by the condemnation of others. Jesus does not condemn. He who died for us and rose to victory prays for us at the right hand of God. We must take hold of his love and his victory, repent, and grow.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your great love that did not spare your own Son. Thank you for Jesus who died and rose and who is interceding for me.
One Word: God loves me and gives me all things
