More Than Conquerors

31What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34Who then is the one who condemns? Not one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?36As it is written:

“For your sake we face death all day long;

we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”^j

37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,^k neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:31-39 NIV

There is royal blood running through your veins and most of us do not see it. Many do not realize that when you come into the family of God through Jesus, you have just entered into a Portal of Eternal Life.  You belong to God and the Body of Christ. Your name has been written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.  

Today, the world seems to be upside down and gone completely crazy at times and when you speak up for Christ you are accused or belittled. Yet, where are our accusers? If God is for us, who can really be against us? When they fight us, they have to fight our Father God, as He is our Defender.  

Where is our enemy when we know the battle is really His? There isn’t one thing on earth, under the earth or in the most imaginable problem we could find in our lives that can ever separate us from His love. Nothing! Nothing! Nothing will separate you from His abounding love! And, this is what fills us up! His love fills us up and makes us strong; indeed we actually become more than Conquerors! We have a praying Savior who is interceding for us. We are filled up with His love and move out in the faith that He has given to us.  When we find ourselves in a time trouble, pray! Your prayers do not have to be long or impressive.. Some of the best prayers are small as long as they come from your heart.  

The mere words, “Father, help me!” He hears!

If you know you are going to approach the Lord in prayer, why not comb your hair? I had a good friend who always made sure she looked presentable before she approached her altar of prayer. We know God is just waiting to hear our requests and our petitions. Be specific when you pray. Pray for those you love or are struggling to love; who need help. If they need healing, lift them up. Pray for victory financially for those you love. Pray for those who do not know Jesus yet and be confident that your prayers have been heard.  

Be assured the answers to your prayers first happens in the invisible realm and then, we see it carried out in the physical and it is all by God’s love and our faith.
