       But Paul’s context here seems to be referring to the here and now, what is going on in our lives. This is such an encouragement for us. God is going to give us good things from day to day, big and small. He’ll help us get a good job, provide a marriage partner, give us things we need and want. He’ll help us have the money to pay our bills, give us favor in that presentation at work, and even aid the parent helping her child with her homework. God helps both big and small. Nothing is too big or too small for his help. Verse 33: “Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.” Paul takes this verse here a step further from the moment he asked who could be against us to now, “Who shall bring any charge against” us? In a way, this may be a reference to Satan, who we remember stands in front of God’s throne to accuse us of this and that sin.
