Surviving Abandonment

Back to Message Archive

Three Gospel Reflections:

1. No Condemnation (Romans 8:1)

Satan will lie; he'll say:

"God doesn't love you"

"God is punishing you"

"God has abandoned you"

2. Spirit of Promise (Romans 8:9-11)

Guarantee of promise lives in us - Spirit

Grieving/quenching/resisting the Spirit

makes us susceptible to being pulled away by Satan

Live repentant lives

Intercession of Spirit vital to spiritual health

Romans 8:26  Spirit interecedes for us

Prays for us

3. Real Purpose for Trials

For our good - Romans 8:28

Overcome by:

Looking at the Truth

Believing it

Building our faith
