David Phelps - We Shall Behold Him (Live)

From Suffering to Glory

Romans 8: 18-30

18For I consider that 2 Cor. 4:17; (1 Pet. 1:6; 4:13)the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

19For (2 Pet. 3:13)the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.

20For Gen. 3:17–19the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;

21because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious (2 Cor. 3:17); Gal. 5:1, 13liberty of the children of God.

22For we know that the whole creation Jer. 12:4, 11groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 

23Not only that, but we also who have 2 Cor. 5:5; Eph. 1:14the firstfruits of the Spirit, 2 Cor. 5:2, 4even we ourselves groan (Luke 20:36)within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the Luke 21:28; Eph. 1:14; 4:30; (Phil. 3:20, 21)redemption of our body.

24For we were saved in this hope, but Rom. 4:18; 2 Cor. 5:7; Heb. 11:1hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

25But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

26Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For Matt. 20:22; 2 Cor. 12:8we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but John 14:16; Rom. 8:15; Eph. 6:18the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 

27Now 1 Chr. 28:9He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints 1 John 5:14according to the will of God.

28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those 

2 Tim. 1:9who are the called according to His purpose.

29For whom 2 Tim. 2:19He foreknew, Rom. 9:23; 1 Cor. 2:7; Eph. 1:5, 11He also predestined (2 Cor. 3:18)to be conformed to the image of His Son, (Col. 1:15, 18); Heb. 1:6that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

30Moreover whom He predestined, these He also Rom. 8:28; 9:24; 1 Cor. 1:9; Gal. 1:6, 15; 5:8; Eph. 1:11; 3:11; 2 Thess. 2:14; (Heb. 9:15; 1 Pet. 2:9; 3:9)called; whom He called, these He also 1 Cor. 6:11; (Gal. 2:16)justified; and whom He justified, these He also John 17:22; Rom. 8:21glorified.
