Every Word

There is nothing God won’t do for you.  “He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?”  - Romans 8:32 (KJV)

There shouldn’t be any reason…  “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” - Romans 8:31 (KJV)

Just say yes to God.  “Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified.”  - Romans 8:30 (KJV)

The choice is yours.  “For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.” - Romans 8:29 (KJV)

That was the reason!  “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.” - Romans 8:28 (KJV)

Some things are hard to understand.  “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.” - Romans 8:28 (KJV)

You don’t have to be an expert.  “Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.” - Romans 8:27 (NKJV)

That’s worth remembering.  “Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” - Romans 8:26 (NKJV)

There’s patience, and there’s patience.  “But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.” - Romans 8:25 (KJV)

The power of hope…  “For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?” - Romans 8:24 (NKJV)

You can become numb.  “Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.”  - Romans 8:23 (NKJV)

Even creation will be blessed.  “For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.” - Romans 8:22 (NKJV)

We will see for ourselves.  “For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.… Because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.” - Romans 8:19, 21 (NKJV)

Bring that thinking to matters of faith.  “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” - Romans 8:18 (KJV)

That’s not even a great question to ask.  “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together.” -  Romans 8:17 (KJV)

What kind of faith would Christianity be?  “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.” - Romans 8:16 (NKJV)

The father you can trust…  You received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’” - Romans 8:15 (NKJV)

You have a bright future!  “For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’”  - Romans 8:15 (NKJV)

Are you settling for crumbs?  “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” - Romans 8:14 (KJV)

Two roads, two directions…  "For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” - Romans 8:13 (NKJV)

Shun debt like the plague?  “Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.” - Romans 8:12 (KJV)

You know the feeling.  “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” - Romans 8:11 (NKJV)

Let today be the day.  And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.” - Romans 8:10 (KJV)

No salvation?  “But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.” -  Romans 8:9 (KJV)

We need that.  “So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.” - Romans 8:8 (KJV)

Not everyone wants to confront this.  “Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.” - Romans 8:7 (KJV)

The whole thing is unnecessary.  “To be spiritually minded is life and peace.” - Romans 8:6 (KJV)

You do your best to avoid it.  “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” - Romans 8:6 (KJV)

You CAN ignore the truth.  “For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.” - Romans 8:5 (KJV)

That man was not alone.  “For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.” - Romans 8:5 (KJV)

Jesus figured it out.  “That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” - Romans 8:4 (KJV)

Is that an excuse?  “For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.” - Romans 8:3 (KJV)

It doesn’t have to be that way.  “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” - Romans 8:2 (KJV)

That’s the issue.  “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. - Romans 8:1 (KJV)

You would be more careful.  “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?” - Romans 6:1 (KJV)

It’s nice and simple.  “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” - Romans 5:1 (KJV)

“The more it is chewed, the more pleasant it is.”  “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” - Romans 1:16 (NKJV)

You’re making an even bigger mistake.  “Sin shall not have dominion over you.” - Romans 6:14 (KJV)

How did that happen?  “For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing.” - Ecclesiastes 9:5 (KJV)

A small seed can become a big tree.  “The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field.” - Matthew 13:31 (KJV)

People fell for it.  “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.” - John 17:17 (NKJV)

Don’t listen to the devil.  “For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.” - John 3:17 (KJV)

The entire family was a mess.  “And behold, the Lord stood above it and said: ‘I am the Lord God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.’” - Genesis 28:13 (NKJV)

He created quite the scene!   “‘Have you only one blessing, my father? Bless me—me also, O my father!” And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.”  - Genesis 27:38 (NKJV)

Things will eventually unravel.  “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.” - Genesis 27:22 (KJV)

The whole thing backfired.  “Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to what I command you.” - Genesis 27:8 (NKJV)

A momentary lapse of reason?  “Esau despised his birthright.” - Genesis 25:34 (KJV)

What a story!  “...an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you.” - 1 Peter 1:4 (NKJV)

How could Jesus believe that?  “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” - John 3:16 (KJV)

It was God’s will.  “Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.” -  Ephesians 1:5 (KJV)

The gold medals were dissolved.  “The dead in Christ shall rise first.” - 1 Thessalonians 4:16 (KJV)

They broke into a prison!  “Whoever commits sin is a slave of sin... If the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” - John 8:34, 36 (NKJV)

The battle is real.  “The devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” - 1 Peter 5:8 (NKJV)

Character counts.  “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches.” - Proverbs 22:1 (KJV)

People do it all the time!  “...is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.” - Matthew 13:44 (NKJV)

Police say it will never be found.  “More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold.” - Psalm 19:10 (KJV)

If you’ve waited, God will accept you.  “You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you will receive.” - Matthew 20:7 (NKJV)

Think of something REALLY valuable.  “...the unsearchable riches of Christ.” - Ephesians 3:8 (KJV)

If it seems hard, think about this!  “Put a knife to your throat if you are a man given to appetite.”  - Proverbs 23:2 (NKJV)

Many people are hard on themselves.  “Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit…, and you are not your own.” - 1 Corinthians 6:19 (NKJV)

As bad as chronic disease!  “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” - Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)

Here’s what’s really good for you.   “For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.” - 1 Timothy 4:8 (NKJV)

She didn’t have to know how.  “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.” - Genesis 27:22 (KJV)

The “fussy eater” went blind.  “Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths.”  - Psalm 25:4 (NKJV)

Your eternal life depends on it.  “A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; The simple pass on and are punished.”  - Proverbs 27:12 (NKJV)

It can be difficult to say, “No more.”  “Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.” - Proverbs 27:20 (KJV)

Be careful how you get it and give it.  “The crucible is for silver and the furnace for gold, and each is tested by the praise accorded him.” - Proverbs 27:21 (NASB)

There’s no need to calculate odds.  “Go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her.”  - Genesis 16:2 (KJV)

You are worth it.  “He shall see of the travail of His soul, and shall be satisfied.”  - Isaiah 53:11 (KJV)

What would you say?  “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.” - 1 John 5:13 (NKJV)

How are you helped by that?  “I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind.”  - Ecclesiastes 1:14 (NKJV)

It will give your life certainty.  “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” -  Matthew 3:17 (KJV)

You’ll be overtaken.  “...His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the beloved.” - Ephesians 1:6 (KJV)

The answer is simple and profound.  “He who has the Son has life.” - 1 John 5:12 (NKJV)

It’s hard to get your mind around some things, but let’s try.   “And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.’” - Revelation 21:3 (KJV)

Imagine that goodbye…  “He gave His only begotten Son,” - John 3:16 (NKJV)

What are you doing to guard your mind?  “In the last days perilous times shall come.” - 2 Timothy 3:1 (KJV)

That’s worth living for.  “I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness.”  - Acts 26:16 (NKJV)

He turned himself in after 15 years.  “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:9 (NKJV)

That’s not what God does.  “And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet.” - Malachi 4:3 (KJV)

It does massive damage.  “Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” - 1 Corinthians 10:31 (NKJV)

It doesn’t mean God is not working.  “There is a cloud, as small as a man’s hand, rising out of the sea!” - 1 Kings 18:44 (NKJV)

He was a very successful man.  “This poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury.” - Mark 12:43 (NKJV)

The devil is hoping that you’ll give up.   “Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith…” - Hebrews 12:2 (NKJV)

The devil has no higher priority.  “They are new every morning.” - Lamentations 3:23 (KJV)

No more problems from that dog…  “The times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent.”  - Acts 17:30 (KJV)

They’re all around you.    “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.” - Colossians 4:5 (KJV)

You’re not going to forget, are you?   “For the Father Himself loves you.” - John 16:27 (NKJV)

You can have tough days…  “My soul clings to the dust; revive me according to Your word.” - Psalm 119:25 NKJV

We’re caught in a very real battle.  “...Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.” - 1 Thessalonians 1:10 (KJV)

The neighbors’ mischievous dog…  “Though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.” - 2 Corinthians 4:16 (KJV)

There’s not a single advantage.  “Your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” - 1 Peter 5:8 (NKJV)

Do not go gentle into that good night.  “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself.” - John 14:2-3 (KJV)

Isn’t that pathetic?  “Thou shalt not steal.” - Exodus 20:15 (KJV)

Life has to be hard when…  “You are complete in Him.”  - Colossians 2:10 (NKJV)

He was intentional.  “And everyone went to his own house.… But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.” - John 7:53; 8:1 (NKJV)

He was not invisible.  “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” - 1 Corinthians 10:12 (NKJV)

“But I wore the juice!”  “My heart stands in awe of Your word,” - Psalm 119:161 (NKJV)
