Call on that name!


35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death?36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”t)
37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,t neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.
39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:35-39




"Overwhelming Victory is ours through Christ, who loved us."


We aren't just victorious in Jesus name, we're overwhelmingly victorious! Instead of climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, we run to the top, do a little jig, and then do it again! How awesome is that?! Sometimes I forget the power that backs up the name, Jesus. I forget to call on the God/Man that did/does it all.

I encourage you to call on that powerful name whenever Satan tries to tell you he's greater. Call on that name when you doubt the power of Christ's love.
Call on that name when you don't have anything else to say.
Call on that name and claim that victory!

Call on that name and thank Him for what He did on the cross, what he continues to do in your life, and for what awaits you in Heaven.

Don't forget where your victory is found.
Don't forget where your name is written.
Don't forget Who's you are!

"Neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow" can keep us from God's love.

His plans are good, and in a world that is filled with sin and uncertainty, its easy to carry anxiety and so much worry. It can make its way and entangle every thought and action. Don't let that happen, call on that name!

Call on Jesus!

HE loves you.

Accept him, take him in, seek him out, and call on that name!

He's got you, let him have you.
