More Than Conquerors

More than Conquerors
“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.”
--Romans 8:37 (NIV)
“More than conquerors.” That’s a pretty profound statement. I am more than a conqueror. That’s awesome to me. It pumps me up, yet it makes me think. I believe that it’s a magnificent confession that we can confess in any situation.

When you’re having a bad day: “I am more than a conqueror. Thank you, God, that today will turn around.” When you’re sick, “I am more than a conqueror. By Jesus’ stripes I’m healed.” When attacks come against you, “I’m more than a conqueror.”
I think that scripture can really apply to any situation. Why? Because the Bible says that in all things we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us.

I love what the following scripture says in the Message Bible. It says, “I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love…” (v.38-39)

That’s so true! We are more than conquerors. I think that we need to take this for all it is and some of our problems are going to disappear. I think that if we can start confessing that all the time, our problems are going to get fixed.
I wrote about victory a few days ago and this goes hand-in-hand with it. This is something that I’m completely passionate about right now.

Ever since I heard Pastor Rick say, “We’ve been called to live a John 10:10 kind of life” this concept has been very big in me. It’s something that I’m striving for. Why? God promised it. Simple answer. Granted, I’m not there yet, but I believe that I can have it. I think that for any age. Whether you’re nine or ninety, older or younger; it doesn’t matter.

The catch is that we’ve got to identify those things that are holding us down and replace them with Truth. What is the truth? The word of God. It’s that simple! Identify and rebuild. We need to get rid of some of the junk in our lives. Romans says that we are more than conquerors; thus, we have the capability to do it and to walk in that!
