And if the Spirit of him who raised
Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead
will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives
in you.......
- Romans 8:11 -
Thoughts on This Verse... Romans 8 reminds us again and
again of the blessings of the Holy Spirit's living in us, God's
children. The Spirit in us is our guarantee that we will be raised from
the dead! Because the Spirit that gave Jesus life and raised him from
the dead is in us, we can have confidence in our resurrection. Mortality
will not claim us -- our bodies may die, but the real and living part
of us will go to be with Jesus (see Philippians 1:19-23). The Holy
Spirit's life-giving power is stronger than death. We will live! Even
though our bodies may die, the Spirit of God animates, inspires, and
empowers us to victory.
