God's goodness and power

The greatest hope is only confirmed by God's goodness and power in Jesus,  and in you and I by the power if the Holy Spirit ...

Romans 8:18-39 is the passage I read this morning. And great peace has swept over me. The peace of God.

We walk by faith in hope of what we are being led in to will be exactly how God revealed it to be. The hope of redemption and salvation is a great hope and even though we have not seen it with our own eyes we see evidence all around us by the grace of God.

God leaves us evidence of His greatness and power, so we can conclude that there is no one greater or more powerful than He is. In fact, we do see miracles every day glory to God! By the power of the Holy Spirit. Even when evil arises,  the goodness and power of God will prevail as greater than evil - rescuing the inocent, bringing justice to the afflicted and delivering the prisoner from iron bars! But you must wait on the Lord, and He shall renew your strength


Romans 8:26-30 NLT
And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will. And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.
