The Overwhelming Victory That Is Ours In Christ



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?

No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.

—Romans 8:35, 37 (NLT)


Loving Heavenly Father,


Help me remember that there is nothing that can ever separate me from the constant and continuous love of Christ—which never wavers, never diminishes, never fails, and never ends.


In the tough and troubled times of my life, help me to cling to this Truth—as I choose to believe that You will use everything that I may suffer to help me to identify more closely with Christ’s sufferings on my behalf, and will help me to more fully realized the depth of Your love for me.

Use those times of my life to draw me close to You and help me to understand how totally dependent I am on You to provide everything I need, not only survive, but also to thrive along this journey here—as I watch You prove Your faithfulness to me, every step along the way.

Let me never forget that no matter what may come, I have no need to fear, for overwhelming victory is mine through Christ—who, by His great love for me, heals my brokenness with Truth; who, through His mercy, forgives my sin and makes me completely whole; and who, out of His amazing grace, grants me eternal life with Him.


Help me remember that there is nothing that can ever separate me from the constant and continuous love of Christ—which never wavers, never diminishes, never fails, and never ends.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
