“If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).
I have heard people comment on this verse, saying that “it is good to have God on our side.” However, I would suggest that this is not the right way to look at this verse. Rather, we should make sure that we are on God’s side. Sometimes we make our own plans, and then ask the Lord to help us carry out those plans. However, the Lord cannot help us in our plans, if those plans are not according to His will.
Rather, we should first of all ask the Lord to show us His will. Then we can go ahead with confidence, for in the pathway of His will, all His power is with us. Can anyone oppose the Lord? No, for the Lord is able to help us overcome any difficulty in our lives, when we are in the pathway of His will. No one can be against us if we are walking with the Lord. Satan may cause difficulties for us, but he cannot win against the Lord.
