We Are Conquerors

Romans 8:37 “In all things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” The Bible tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God. In whatever we think will take His love away, He tells us nothing can do that. He lets us know that in all things we will be more than conquerors through Him because He loves us. So what does that all mean: ALL – the whole quantity or extent of a group or thing MORE -- a greater or additional amount of something CONQUEROR – one who successfully overcomes a problem or weakness (gains or wins) No matter what we face, death of a child, divorce, mental illness, wayward child or any trials Satan throws at us, we will be more than a conqueror. So what does being more than a conqueror look like? We can walk through our trials being angry and bitter. We can take what has happened to us and bottle it up and let it fester. Or, we can take what has happened and turn it into something we never thought possible. When I lost my daughter Katie, I thought my life was over. Nothing good could ever come out of such a loss. Oh, how wrong I was! The Lord has taken a wasteland of grief and turned it into a land of milk and honey. I challenge you to take this loss and find a way to use it to help others. Reach out to someone who is struggling. Walk beside them. That is the first step to let Satan know that the Lord and you will win this battle for your soul. We are the champions, my friend, with Him by our side. – Michele
