Being more than conquerors is a spiritual principle that keeps you hopeful on a daily basis. It requires continuous action. Faith is the action Conquerors use daily. With all of the issues we deal with today – economic uncertainty for one – discouragement, by way of distraction, is a design to disrupt faith. Dismay breads fear. It is extremely common for me to walk through the course of any given day and get overwhelmed by some situation that is not going the way I expected it to. Any circumstance with designs to overtake my faith and replace it with fear becomes an opportunity for new faith to develop.
 Here in Atlanta the traffic can create varying results. Anger, stress, rage and distraction are in the forefront for me. Using MARTA does have its advantages. When I have left home two hours earlier to get to my destination on time and I have to encounter “a parking lot” on the interstate, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. No matter how much I try to control the outcome and be efficient, I am forced to STOP! It is in this state of “stop” that being more than conquerors begins to minister to me. The traffic, i.e. hindrance to get where I THINK I need to be at the time I THINK I need to be there, is an opportunity to reaffirm who I am in Christ and my real purpose through allowing His Sovereign will to “be” the driving force in and over my life. Can you relate? I must remember that I am “more than a conqueror through Him that loved us” by any means necessary. I can live victoriously, not arrogantly. Victorious living is derived from my spiritual condition and my spiritual position; arrogance is directly linked to my ego. Biblical truth keeps my ego in check and it keeps me sane. We can actively engage in ALL that we do as “more than conquerors.” God has given us this infinite gift – JESUS CHRIST our LORD. The scriptures will continue to serve you as a source of encouragement in these perilous times we live in. I have created this site to actually assist you. Keeping my commitment to defining the “conqueror lifestyle” is a goal that God has given me and I will share it with you in various ways through Conqueror Ministries. This work is getting done one person at a time, one day at a time. Your support by regular use of ConquerorShots and your personal willingness to learn to live a conqueror lifestyle will serve others as well as you.
I am excited about hearing from you and learning how this principle works in your life as well. Tell your friends, acquaintances and loved ones to join in. Together we can stay in the race.
Endeavor with me to maintain the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
