Romans 8:31-32

Biblical Context

Paul asks what we should say about these things: if God is for us, who can be against us? He then asserts that since He delivered His own Son, He will freely give us all things.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville’s ear, Romans 8:31-32 speaks of the I AM behind every thought. 'If God is for us' means the inner state that you are—an awareness that never resists your good—exists as your very being. The 'God' who spared not His own Son is the boundless Love of your deeper Self, which gave up the highest expression so you might live in fullness. The question 'who can be against us?' dissolves once you recognize that any outward circumstance is only a movement within your mind. The second verse asks how He could with the Son refrain from freely giving all things to the one who identifies with that Son—the true self. Thus your needs, opportunities, and joys are not distant givings but present realizations within the state you inhabit. Your daily life shifts as your assumption aligns with the truth that you are supported, cherished, and supplied by the inner Christ who dwells as your awareness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume the state 'God is for me' as a living fact. Create a brief scene where your desire is already provided and feel that fullness until it seems real.
