UNCONQUERABLE LOVE
Welcome! Blessings!
Someone may be feeling like they’re really getting a spiritual beat-down today! Have you ever felt beat-up from the feet up…tore up from the floor up? (Thanks Israel Houghton for the rhymes!)
Listen, don’t allow that enemy of your soul to attack your faith. Don’t let the accuser accuse you of not having enough faith. And don’t let him accuse God of not being loving, compassionate and kind towards you. Don’t let your adversary devour your faith!
Don’t allow the deceiver to twist the truth in an attempt to discourage you and have you filled with regret. Don’t allow him to have you look back on the many ways that God has used you mightily throughout your life and sarcastically taunt, “That’s the thanks you get!” Don’t look back because you won’t be able to see where you’re going, where God is taking you. Don’t look back because you won’t be able to see how you can go on. Look forward; look to God!
As it is written, For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. Romans 8:36&37
How could we believe that all we’re worth to God, the Father,
Is some defenseless animals appointed for a slaughter?
Though there are many battlefields where we have gone and served;
The Lord’s been with us and made sure that our lives were preserved.
Who is it that wants those who serve God to be upset;
And jeers sarcastically that pain’s the only thanks we get?
None but the deceiver, he’s the one who has the ploy;
To get all those he can so he can kill, steal and destroy.
And if that is not bad enough, he’s also the accuser;
Who tries to make us think that God’s the one who’s the abuser.
But God’s already let us know He loves us and He’s for us,
And when we would succumb to doubt, He’s there to reassure us—
That nothing that’s in front, behind, beneath us or above;
Can counteract or separate us from His wondrous love.
Be Unconquerably Encouraged!

Thankyou God, Thankyou Pam your words have touched my heart and recharged my spirit. I have been having some struggles in this area and praying to God to help me. God’s words through you have been a blessing. God bless you and keep you. I am praying for you.
Guess I have to thank Israel Houghton for the rhymes if they can make me smile about being ‘beat-up from the Floor-up’ Ha! Well, at least his song, ‘I am a friend of God’ blows such light affliction away. I mean, think about it. *smile*
Don’t really know how this Zanga thing works Sister Pam, but I ended up here reading your blog.. My name is Michael. I’m a retired AF vet. And and my wife and I are missionaries in Bolivia.
God birthed my ministry calling in the jails and prisons of Las Vegas and has brought me through many Mt 25:40 steps to get me here; a place I never expected to be in a million years…
The main reason I felt led to write was because of the testimony of your friend with cancer. I have a wonderful testimony of the Lord giving a young woman with 4 kids back her life. She had aids. Her husband died of it. But then God saved her, healed her, and did a whole lot more.
So I don’t know how to share that with your friend except to give you my web site and email address. Th web site is being updated so may look a bit strange, but you can contact me at the ministry email.
Blessings,
