We Are Conquerors

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels or demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:35-39

We have faced an unusual year with the worldwide pandemic and the national election. But neither of these troubles or hardships will separate us from our Lord Jesus Christ. This is promised to us in Romans.

Being separated from our families has caused almost all of us to be distressed as we want to hold and hug those who are precious to us. Our troubled country is being looked upon as a third world country as foreign nations watch across the globe.

Prayer: Dear Father in heaven, we thank you for our Christian founders and pray that we can follow their constitution as written. We thank you for the promises of the Bible knowing no matter what happens in the U.S. or anywhere on earth, we know we have the love of your son Jesus. Help us remember the Bible’s words, “Let not your heart be troubled.” Amen.
