Romans 8:38

Romans 8:38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come, 38 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The Apostle Paul wrote this verse believing the world was in its very last days as evil had consumed the Roman world for Christians. Here we are 2000 years later, watching the signs of the times, and we know these evil days are now on a world-wide scale and the end of the end is upon us. We live in a darkened evil world that is fast tracking downward at speeds far beyond our imagination and control.  We can be consumed with its evil presence or look at it from a heavenly perspective. As believers in Christ, we must never forget to look upward and keep our eyes on the prize that is yet to come and the assignment of why we are here.

God purposely put you on this earth for this time and season. He planned out your life long before you were born, giving you an assignment while you are here.  Your responsibility is to know that assignment and "stay in your own lane." That's the lane God has put you in. Stay there! God then has entrusted and expects you to live out your assignment in these last days as a winner, full of purpose and excitement, knowing you have a prize awaiting you.

No matter what obstacles come your way, even if it comes through demonic powers or even the threat of death, be rest assured that God has you on assignment and as such, nothing can separate you from that love that God has encased you in.  His love will protect and overtake you until you head to glory to receive your prize. 

Until your assignment is over, God will take care of you, no matter what. Nothing will separate you from that love that God has for you.  So then, follow God and stay in your own lane and enjoy the ride!
