Episode Nothing Depends on What You Do

0:00 11:19

Join Graham, Dionne, and Team Brilliant March 27-29 for BrillianceSpring — a three-day virtual event where you'll trade pressure and performance for a relational way of growing in God. You'll walk away with a personal Kingdom routine, fresh encounters with God's nature, and a global community of believers who are on the same journey.

What if the pressure we feel to perform for God's blessing is the very thing keeping us from receiving it? Graham Cooke draws on Romans 8 to reveal a God who doesn't wait for our behavior to improve before giving freely — a God who intercedes for us, justifies us, and overwhelmingly conquers on our behalf. What would change if we genuinely believed that victory is always a response, never a requirement?

Key Scriptures: + Hebrews 13:5. "I will never leave you nor forsake you." + Romans 8:31. "What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" + Romans 8:32. "He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?" + Romans 8:33-34. "Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn?" + Romans 8:37. "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." + Romans 8:38-39. "For I am sure that neither death nor life...nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
