"…no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus…" — Romans 8:1

Those who believe in Christ and have submitted to Him are cleared of guilt and set free — delivered from the bondage of sin. Whom He sets free is free indeed. We are to live by faith in Christ, and so we are the children of God (1 John 3:2). We are free from sin, for the precious blood of Jesus has set us free from eternal damnation, and we are complete in Him (Colossians 2:10).

With Him all things are possible, and they are worked out in the lives of His children. Those who believe in the Lord are not condemned and will not be punished; the Lord has given His children privileges to enjoy in Him, and He shares His blessings with all who put their hope and trust in Him.

The Lord has provided us all the love we receive through His perfect obedience. Christ was perfectly obedient on our behalf, so that we might become rich through Him — and we are rich in Christ. Let us always show our love to the Lord who will never leave us nor forsake us. How great is His love for us all! Let us obey Him, do His will, and serve Him faithfully.

May the Lord God strengthen you to totally submit to Him, do His will, and be abundantly blessed and protected by Him. Amen!
