5 THINGS THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN TO A CITIZEN OF HEAVEN!

#1­—God promises that nothing will ever happen to you that will cause Him
to love you less or more than He does right now!

Jeremiah 31:3 (NIV84)
The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.”

Romans 5:8 (CEV)
But God showed how much He loved us by having Christ die for us, even though we were sinful.

Romans 10:12-13 (NIV84)
For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, ¹³for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 

“Call out to me now the way you are…I love you”

1 John 4:8-10 (NIV84)
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. ⁹This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. ¹⁰This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins 

Love is what God is…not just something he does!

God promises nothing will ever happen to you that will cause Him to love you less or more than He does right now!

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” 

“I am with you always”

John 16:33 (NIV)

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

John 10:27-30 (NIV84)

#5­­—God promises that nothing will ever happen to you that you cannot handle by His power and grace!

1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV84)
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. 

Philippians 4:13 (NIV84)
I can do everything through him who gives me strength. 

2 Corinthians 12:7-10 (NIV84)
To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.   ⁸Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.  ⁹ But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.  ¹⁰That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 

Zechariah 4:6 (NIV84)
“This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty.’”

God promises that nothing will ever happen to you that you cannot handle by His power and grace!
