In Romans 8:35-39 we see a long list of things that will NEVER separate us from Christ's love.
And at the end of the list we read, "...or anything else." NOTHING can separate us from His love! (Seriously, something to "Selah" about!)
Verse 37 tells us, "Yet amid all of these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loves us."
My definition of conqueror would basically be, "one who defeats; is victorious," but I have discovered that in the Greek, the word "conquer" has a prefix attached to it--"hyper" which means "above" or "surpassing." This means we are not only conquerors, but we are super-victorious as we live out our faith in Christ.
Father, may we, your children, live in this truth today and everyday! Selah!
