Application:Are you at peace with God? Do you feel like you are fighting battles with your inner self? You dont have to be alone. Jesus has freed you of all your worries. We just have to trust in who He is.

Romans 5:1–5 NKJV
1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; 4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Romans: The MacArthur New Testament Commentary The Believer’s Standing in Grace

For a believer to doubt his security is to bring into question both God’s integrity and His power. It is also to add the merit of men’s work to the gracious, unmerited work of God. It is to add self-trust to trust in our Lord, because if salvation can be lost by anything that we can or cannot do, our ultimate trust obviously must be in ourselves rather than in God.

4. We have Security through Christ.

Perseverance- We have been sealed
