Romans 8:37

<\/p>\n

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors
\nthrough Him who loved us<\/em>.

<\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • There are many things that can make us feel insecure or bring
    \ndoubt. <\/li>\n
  • But we can live with divine certainty in our lives on a daily
    \nbasis.<\/li>\n
  • The main reason is simply because we are greatly loved by God.<\/li>\n
  • In His great love, He comes and makes us more than conquerors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    \n
    Prayer:

    <\/p>\n

    Lord, thank You for Your great love for me. I am loved by my
    \nHeavenly Father and because of this great love, I have nothing to fear and I can
    \nbe a conqueror regardless of the situation. Amen.

    <\/p>\n
