Hidden Treasure and Power – Conquerors

Someone reading this message today (well, each of us) needs to be reminded about the reality of our battle. Our enemy is very much real and he does attack us everyday trying to get us to think we are without value, insignificant, and failures in the big picture. He (the enemy)

throws situations and struggles at us to get us to believe these things and think that there is no hope.

But our LORD says something very different about us. He sees all of what our enemy is doing to accuse, discourage and belittle us and He allows it for this season. But even

in the middle of all the problems, He says that YOU have are a hidden and unique treasure… He has given your life not only meaning, but a special divine purpose that only YOU con do in this world. As the Potter with the clay, He is making a masterpiece in all of what we see as

chaos. When things seem desperate and without solution or hope, He promises to come to your rescue and to fight your battles. YOU are more than a conqueror. This is what God says about you and it’s not just an early morning pep talk. Word of God speak!

28 And we know that God

causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. 29 For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And

having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.

Nothing Can Separate Us from God’s Love
31 What shall we say about such wonderful things as these?

If God is for us, who can ever be against us? 32 Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? 33 Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? No one—for God himself has given us right standing with himself.

34 Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us.

35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have

trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”) 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours (We are

more than conquerors) through Christ, who loved us. - Romans 8:28-37
