More Than Conquerors
Adapted from Beginning Your Day God’s Way
Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us.
There is no doubt that thinking positive is much easier when life is not difficult, but it is self-defeating to think that you can’t be positive in every circumstance. Be careful not to just focus on your problems but remember to also focus on and be thankful for your blessings. It is very important for each of us to learn how to have the victory in our minds in the midst of our problems. God’s Word reassures us that we are not just conquerors but more than conquerors even during life’s toughest moments (Romans 8:37).
When life gets tough, I often turn to Romans 8:35–39 to remind myself of God’s unwavering love. I try to remember that, at times, I may appear as a sheep being led to slaughter, but in the midst of these things, I am more than a conqueror.
To me, this simply means that we can always be assured of eventual victory. We may go through very difficult things, but following the principles God has set for us in His Word will bring us through safely every time. It is very helpful during difficult times to remember that they won’t last forever. That is what helps me keep my joy in adversity.
Prayer of the Day: God, I know that You love me and that I am more than a conqueror. I need you in my current situation. I believe victory is coming! I will trust You all the way to the finish, amen.
