You are a conqueror!

I just want to put this out there. 

There are days when the devil puts all he has into wrecking it, or maybe it's been a week or even a year. But I just want it to be known that we as Christians are on the "already-won" side, that's right - it's not just the "last 3 years winning" side - it's the "battle is over" side. No matter what you face in your day-to-day life, if you claim Jesus you are a conqueror. No matter what the devil has planned, call on the name of Jesus and the devil no longer has power. 

Sometimes it might seem like the the devil is winning, and at times, if you let him, the devil can wreck a lot more than just your day. But guess what, God allows that to happen; but He allows it for a reason.  God painfully molds us into who He wants us to be. Let me tell you, if you are in a place where there is painful pulling and stretching into who he wants you to be, you will look back and see the old broken pieces of a sorry excuse for a jar - and thank God for making you into the, not-perfect, but beautiful jar that you will be. It's all worth it in the end. 

" Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding." - Proverbs 3:5 
"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." - 1 Peter 5:7 
"He says, "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." - Psalm 46: 10 

I felt like someone needed to know this, and I needed to write it. 
You are a child of the Kingdom of God. Claim it, proclaim it and take pride in it.
