(<a href=\"https:\/\/bible.faithlife.com\/bible\/niv\/Romans8.35\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Romans 8:35<\/span><\/a>) Yes! That is the Father\u2019s ultimate assurance to us through Christ Jesus and the indwelling Holy Spirit. Nothing can separate us from God\u2019s love in Christ. The Evil One and his allies can kill our bodies, ruin our finances, wrack our physical being with pain, and seek to destroy our relationships. However, the Evil One cannot have our hearts when they are surrendered to Jesus. And when our hearts belong to the <span lang=\"en-CA\">Lord<\/span>, so does our future, and Satan cannot change our ultimate future with Jesus (<a href=\"https:\/\/bible.faithlife.com\/bible\/niv\/Colossians3.1-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Colossians 3:1-4<\/span><\/a>). The empty tomb of Jesus assures us that our future with him is glorious, victorious, and unending.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Give me eyes to see, O God, and a heart to believe that Jesus\u2019 victory over death is my victory, too! I don\u2019t want to be derailed from my hope, faith, and love by life\u2019s difficulties. Instead, I want to be a living testimony to your power, victory, and grace. In Jesus\u2019 name and for his glory, I live and pray.
