Romans 8:35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity.....v.37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. NLT.
v.37 Yet in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through Him who loved us. NKJV.
How do you see yourself, because how you see yourself will determine how you act and react to the situations which arise each day? Are you a MORE THAN person or a LESS THAN person?
In the film 'Honey I Shrunk The Kids', the kids who were 'shrunk' found every circumstance overwhelming because they were so tiny and everything around them seemed so big.
Of the 12 spies who went to spy out the land, 10 came back and said 'we were like grasshoppers in our own eyes, there are giants in there and we can't go and conquer the land.' Whereas Joshua and Caleb, who had a different spirit said something quite different! Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, "Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it." Numbers 13:30
God had told them they could do it but unfortunately, they didn't believe it. All they saw were the giants. David saw his giant and brought him down. That's what giants are made for - bringing down!
When we face these giants God wants us to do it through the power of the Holy Spirit because Jesus has already won all the battles and defeated our enemy. When we put God's armour on and put the visor down over our helmet when we face the enemy he doesn't know it's you in there, he thinks it's Jesus and he's right because Jesus is IN us and HIS POWER IS IN US.
The enemy is actually frightened of us when we know who we are IN CHRIST because he knows we can conquer him with God's word and with the blood of the lamb.
Can I encourage us all to remember who we are in Christ. WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS THROUGH CHRIST WHO LOVED US. We have not been 'shrunk'!!
He has made us 'well able to overcome' people! Let's believe Him and use the weapons of our warfare to bring down these giants that are troubling us.
SEE YOURSELF TODAY AND EVERY DAY AS A 'MORE THAN' PERSON because you are! 😊
