we need only remember.

Anything that gets in the way, interferes or intervenes between you and God, must be, by default, from the enemy.  Truly, one must be damned eternally to even ponder getting in the middle of that relationship.

That said, even when ensnared, the believer need only remember God's promises and what has already been sacrificed.  This is our mercy, and we are assured of future deliverance, assured by the words to and of God's prophets.

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?.......

...i am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor pricipalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

We need only remember God's mercy.
