Romans 8:35 (NKJV) Who shall separate us from the love ofChrist? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, ornakedness, or peril, or sword?
I grew up in a family of 6 boys and1 girl, there were plenty of times where we didn’t want to get along, therewere plenty times we didn’t want to talk to one another, plenty of days wherewe would fight, but despite how we felt, we understood one principle. Ourgreatest strength was in our ability to remain united. There was a saying within our neighborhood,don’t mess with them because if you mess with one you mess with all. The only time we were able to be touched was separately.
Romans 8:35 gives a clear depictionof how many different ways the enemy will try to separate you from the love of Christ. He will attempt to attack us through tribulation,distress, persecution, famine, nakedness (exposure), peril (threats) or evenwords. As siblings we knew our strengthwas in our unity; likewise, our strength against the enemy is within our unitywith Christ. The enemy will try to do whateverhe can to break the chain of unity we have with Christ. This day, reinforce your unity with Christand let the enemy know you are convinced nothing will separate you from His love.
