Circumstances – good or bad-come and go but His words are forever! This is why the just lives by faith; the justified – those God called – lived and lives by the word of God. God never changes and neither does His words. His will, which is found in scripture, never changes either. We are able to trust Him and His words no matter what this fallen world (fallen people, fallen angels, disease, etc…) might throw at us-believe it! No matter how bad it might “look” we believe Him, and His love for us never fails us. We also believe no created thing can separate us from that love. Wow, what a powerful revelation, He is for us and not against us!

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long;We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:31–32 (NKJV): 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
