About this episode

This episode discusses the partnership with God during times of suffering, based on Romans 8:26-29.

This message will encourage anyone who is struggling with suffering and heartache. Romans 8:26-29 speaks of the wonderful partnership we have with God in Christ. He brings us into a partnership with the Spirit and the Father and this makes all the difference in how we make it through the hard times. While serving in Fairview, Alberta, Canada, my mentor Keith Hale told me one time, "Vic, if God is your Partner, then make your plans big." Likewise, the famous evangelist from the past, D.L. Moody used to say, "God gives us dreams a size too big, so that we can grow into them." Romans chapter 8 is one of the greatest chapters in the Bible. The passage we are about to examine is preceded by a section focused on our eternal hope in Christ. As we move into the next section, 8:26-29 Paul transitions from eternal hope to present help. Infusion into Our Weaknesses, v. 26 Inability of Our Wisdom, v. 26 Intercession beyond Our Words, v. 26 Initiative beyond Our Wants, v. 27 Interlocked with God's Will, v. 27 -- Growing in Grace Devotions and Inspirations Hosted by Pastor Victor Morrison First Baptist Church 1700 Milam Street Columbus, TX, USA 78934 http://fbccolumbustx.org/
