Romans 5:6-11

1 Passage: Romans5:6-11

1 Verse: Verse 10. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

1 Prayer: Father, I am so sick of being told by people who think they know You who our enemies are and what they have done and what they deserve and why. You have not given us what our sins deserve, but some among us seem bent on not extending the same grace to others. So they want to kill us, they hate us, they speak all sorts of evil against us because of Your name. We should be thankful, for You received the same treatment and far worse. And You forgave. You endured. You allowed Yourself to be killed rather than to kill Your enemies outright. We Your students are not above You, our Master. Help us live in the eternal kind of life -- the one that doesn't fear those who can kill the body, but that fears the One who has the power to cast into eternal hell and chooses to go there for us instead.
