More than Conquerors Romans 8:31–38 Proclaim your victory, even before you have it How many are good at sports? In primary school I was horrible in sports. But I joined the Basketball team anyways. On our last game they put me in last minute, because they had no else. Towards the end of the game, they had to pass me the ball, I closed my eyes and threw the ball, and scored! We won that game and I felt so victorious! Romans 8:37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. more than conquerors - “over and above,” and “to conquer.” The word describes one who is super victorious, who wins more than an ordinary victory, but who is overpowering in achieving abundant victory. And has control over their situation. Now this is how I want to live my life - You might ask, “But how can I live like “more than a conqueror”, when I don’t see victory in my circumstances anywhere close? By proclaiming the victory even before you have it! Read the story of Jehoshaphat (2 Chron 20). – San Diego tent revival story They believed God for the victory, went out for war against an army 3 times bigger than theirs. Put their worshipers on the front line and starting chanting, “Praise the Lord, for His mercy endures forever.”. And guess what happened… They got the victory without fighting for it. They just praised God for it, like He told them to do! So, what is He telling you to put first? Be obedient and watch what happens! Matthew 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. When my sister and her husband were trying to have kids, they had two miscarriages instead. The third time around, my mom and me decided to fast a pray victory and not loss in my sister’s future family. On the third day she went to the doctor and they confirmed there was a healthy baby in her. They went on to have two kids. We proclaim that we are more than conquerors and that we have the victory, even before we have it. Worship team come up and read the passage below Romans 8:38–39 So now I live with the confidence that there is nothing in the universe with the power to separate us from God’s love. I’m convinced that his love will triumph over death, life’s troubles, fallen angels, or dark rulers in the heavens. There is nothing in our present or future circumstances that can weaken his love. There is no power above us or beneath us—no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God’s passionate love, which is lavished upon us through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One! My wife gave me an idea on what to speak about today. I believe the word she gave me is for some of you – TRUST! Trust God for victory, He is doing a new thing, TRUST! Communion time – In Remembrance of me Luke 22:18-20 For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” And likewise, the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. Jesus wasn’t just making a statement of us remembering him, but a covenant that He was remembering us too. It is a reminder of the gospel message and power that comes from it – Power to be more than conquerors, to be victorious, to know that as we remember Him and what He did and does for us, He remembers us and the promises He made to us.
