It’s day two of the 40 Day Marriage Challenge here at Refocused Bible Study.
This whole chapter is so good! Especially v.31-39!
L – Log the verse – “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.”
Romans 8:37 ESV
O – Observations – “all these things” in the verses leading up to this one include: trouble, calamity, persecution, hunger, coldness, endangerment, and being threatened with death. These were serious troubles believers were facing. Paul was able to pen these words through the Holy Spirit because though these were real fears, Christ had already given them victory by conquering sin and death on the cross.
V- Verse pertains to marriage – Jesus’ victory on the cross brings us victory in marriage. We face real troubles and stressors in marriage. (If you are in physical danger in your marriage please get to a safe place and seek professional help, but continue to seek Jesus’ help!) All issues are won on the cross. Jesus loves you and your spouse no matter what’s going on in your relationship and he is FOR you and your marriage. Believe he is allowing any trial to bring good and to strengthen your relationship to Him and your relationship with your husband. Today pray for one area in your marriage that is lacking. Trust God to bring victory in His power and timing.
E- end in prayer- Inseparable Savior, thank you for victory in my marriage – over any opposing force in the spiritual or physical realm. Keep pushing back the darkness and bring victory in all areas of my marriage. For your glory, Amen.
Give God glory below by sharing one way He’s answered a prayer in your marriage, and given you and your husband victory over an issue. ✨
Hi Amy,
The greatest victory in our marriage is that in the midst of our daughters worst days with seizures at a younger age, He made our marriage stronger for our daughter!!! The statistics are alarming at a high rate of divorce in families of special needs children. The Lord brought our family together and made us stronger and more faithful!🙏🏻
