Nothing You Can Do/Unstoppable Love
“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Have you ever thought of the love that God has for you as being victorious, powerful, or unstoppable?
Maybe when you think of the love of God, an image of God holding a lamb in the midst of a warm, heavenly glow – something straight out of a children’s Bible – comes to mind. While that kind of tenderness and intimacy is an aspect of God’s love, it is not the whole picture.
Romans 8 reminds us that, because God has conquered all things, we too can conquer all things. The Greek word that is used for the phrase “more than conquerors” is hypernikaō, and it means “to gain a surpassing victory.”
This claim is found in the midst of Paul emphasizing that believers can look forward to the ultimate victory of Jesus: Jesus’ defeat over suffering and oppression, both earthly and supernatural. God’s plan for salvation ends in victory, and that victory is found in the love of Christ.
The love that God has for us, and therefore the love that we have the opportunity to share with others, is active, moving, and an insurmountable force. It is an image of a soldier on the battlefield, utterly destroying his enemy.
It is an image of your favorite football team completely slaughtering their opponents, running touchdown after touchdown with no chance of a comeback for the other team. It is an image of a single mom doing whatever it takes to make ends meet. It is an image of a student breaking generational strongholds that grip their family and choosing the love of Jesus each and every day.
The victory of the love of God means that we don’t have to be gripped by the fear that chokes the world around us. Our heavenly Father holds us in His hand, the same hand that conquered death and the grave. As His beloved child, you have that same power: you are more than a conqueror, armed with the “sword of the Spirit” and protected by the “shield of faith” (Ephesians 6:14-17).
- Read Ephesians 6:10-17. What part of the armor of God do you need? How can you intentionally put on the armor of God?
- Do you believe that you are a conqueror and that you live in victory? Why or why not?
- What in your life do you need God’s love to defeat and conquer in Jesus’ name?
