"How shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" - Romans 8:32

An excellent exhortation from John Piper's "The Purifying Power of Living by Faith in Future Grace"

"What did Paul mean when he said, 'If God is for us, who is against us?' I think he meant, 'Who can be successfully against us?' What opposition could there ever be against us that almighty God could not transform into our benefit? And the answer is: none. This is what Paul means later when he says that in tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, peril and sword we 'overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us' (Romans 8:37). We overwhelmingly conquer not by escaping these terrible things, but by watching God turn these enemies of our joy into servants of our good......

The great promise of future grace, guaranteed in the logic of Romans 8:32, is that nothing will ever enter your experience as God's child that, by God's sovereign grace, will not turn out to be a benefit to you. This is what it means for God to be God, and for God to be for you, and for God to freely give you all things with Christ."
