Romans 8 is the assurance chapter. We've already seen how the Holy Spirit gives us assurance of victory over sin, of the fact we are God's children, and of the glorious future God has promised us. But Paul has also spoken of suffering for Christ. All of God's children suffer for Christ in some way, some way more than others. In the context of this assured suffering, God's promises are even more precious. We'll find two fresh assurances for times when we are weak in our passage this week, Romans 8:26-30.
