Victory In Jesus

Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

If you are saved, you are “more than a conqueror” in Jesus. I don’t always feel like it. I don’t always live like it. But the Bible assures me that it is true.

To be “more than conquerors” we must take God at His Word, even when we feel defeated. We have “Victory In Jesus” when we believe, then we can victoriously sing “Victory In Jesus”

“I heard an old, old story — How a Savior came from glory — How He gave His life on Calvary — To save a wretch like me. — I heard about His groaning, — Of His precious blood’s atoning, — Then I repented of my sins and won the victory.

“O victory in Jesus, — My Savior, forever. — He sought me and bought me — With His redeeming blood; — He loved me ere I knew Him, — And all my love is due Him, — He plunged me to victory, — Beneath the cleansing flood

“I heard about His healing, — Of His cleansing power revealing. — How He made the lame to walk again — And caused the blind to see; — And then I cried, “Dear Jesus, — Come and heal my broken spirit,” — And somehow Jesus came and brought To me the victory.

“I heard about a mansion —He has built for me in glory.— And I heard about the streets of gold — Beyond the crystal sea; — About the angels singing, — And the old redemption story, — And some sweet day I’ll sing up there — The song of victory.”
