Having Him, we have obedience, rest, patience and everything we need. He is alive forevermore. If you have Jesus nothing can be against you. Your temptations will not be against you. Your bad temper will not be against you. Your hard life, your circumstances-even the devil himself will not be against you. Every time he comes to attack you, he will only root you deeper in Christ. You will become a coward at the thought of being alone; you will be thrown on Jesus every time a trouble confronts you. From now on, all things will work together for good to your spiritual welfare. Since God is for you nothing can be against you. My heavenly Bridegroom sought me and called me one glad day. "Arise, my love, my fair one, arise and come away," I listened to His pleading, gave Him all my heart, And we are one forever and nevermore shall part. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/ab-simpson/he-hath-perfected-forever-them-that-are-sanctified/ ========================================================================
