MORE THAN CONQUERORS (part 1)




Romans 8: 37

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.




We may face trials, temptations and even setbacks but the Word of God says clearly that in all these things (no matter what - all means all - you name it) we are more than conquerors.

We are not going to become conquerors but already are. Victory is ours! We are not trying or manipulating our way to be victorious but already on the victory ground. We are not supposed to pray for victory … we should be praising God for the victory in Christ Jesus. We don’t have to fight for victory but fight from the victory that Christ has obtained for us through His death and resurrection. We grow from glory to glory. Amen!

Now to make this point clear; you are already a victor even before you were born. You defeated about 200 million sells that travelled from your father’s sperm to touch your mother’s egg.

You are a Conqueror when you hit the mark to be formed in your mother’s womb. YOU are UNIQUE! Isn’t that amazing?

Gideon defeats a Midianite army of 120,000 with only 300 soldiers, with torches and pitchers –

In - Judges 7 – you will find out the secret of his success:

* Gideon did not have to fight but just believe in God. (We got to Trust God for He is faithful.)

* He obeyed the voice of God and followed the instructions exactly though it sounded illogical. (Obedience is better than sacrifice.)

* He overcame his fears and timidity and put his faith into action. (Faith without action is dead.)

* Gideon recognised his authority in God. (We got to know who we are in Christ.)

* He did not depend on the quantity of his army but depended 100 percent on God’s favour and strength. (We got to depend on God and not men.)

Amen.

(to be cont...)
