#94 | God Really Loves You | Romans 8:32 | The Great 8

from The Daily Rebel Devotional with Derek Griffon · host Derek Griffon

"Does God really love me?"Maybe you asked that question after an unanswered prayer. After losing someone you loved. After another battle with sin. After life didn't unfold the way you hoped.We've all been there.But in Romans 8:32, Paul doesn't answer that question by pointing to your circumstances. He points to the cross. Because if you ever begin doubting the love of God, don't look at what's happening around you. Look at what already happened for you. The Father didn't spare His own Son but willingly gave Him up so that sinners like us could become sons and daughters of God. The cross isn't merely proof that God loved you once. It's the eternal evidence that He loves you still. Paul argues from the greater to the lesser: if God has already given His greatest gift—Jesus—why would He suddenly withhold everything you truly need? He may not give you everything you want, but He will always provide everything necessary to accomplish His purpose in your life.In this episode, we unpack three powerful truths from Romans 8:32:1. God Gave His Greatest Gift — Love is measured by sacrifice. The greatest gift God could ever give wasn't health, comfort, success, or prosperity. It was His Son.2. God's Gift Guarantees His Grace — If God didn't withhold Jesus, He won't withhold the grace, strength, wisdom, peace, and presence you need today.3. Live From What Has Already Been Given — Stop questioning God's heart every time life gets hard. The cross settled God's love forever.Ultimately, Jesus wasn't reluctantly sacrificed. He willingly laid down His life. The Father wasn't cruel. The Son wasn't trapped. Together, in perfect love, they accomplished our redemption. The cross wasn't Plan B—it was God's rescue plan from the very beginning.Final Application:Where have you been questioning God's goodness?Where have you mistaken God's silence for God's absence?Where have you allowed your circumstances to become louder than the cross?Today... look again at Calvary.Because every time you wonder if God loves you...the cross still answers: "Yes."Send us Fan MailBook Derek Griffon to Speak at your next event https://www.derekgriffon.com/invite
