Pat Leahy and Harry McGee join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· Ireland's decision to participate in a European-wide initiative celebrating Norman heritage and influence has drawn the ire of Sinn Féin. The initiative is called '2027 The Year of the Normans – People of Europe', and Cabinet approved plans to mark 1000 years since the birth of England's first Norman king William the Conqueror have been labelled “offensive” by the Opposition party.· In a move to start the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza after Israel's near three-month blockade, a majority of EU states have backed a proposal to review the union's agreement governing relations with Israel.· The HSE estimates that the number of children on waiting lists for disability or autism services will grow from 15,000 now to 25,000 by the end of the year, something disability rights campaigner Cara Darmody (14) highlighted with a 50-hour protest outside Leinster House this week.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Joe Biden's cognitive and physical decline, hurling at its most biblical, and the four distinct categories that leaders fall into.

Black Sunday (1960), Blood and Black Lace (1964), and A Bay of Blood (1971) There are films by certain directors that are truly iconic—classics of the genre we sometimes assume everyone has already seen. But it's easy to forget that, right now, there are fans just beginning their journey into horror. Whether due to age or a newfound curiosity, they're taking their first steps into the genre. For those unfamiliar with him, we'd like to introduce one of horror's true maestros: Mario Bava. And for those already acquainted with his work, maybe it's time for a revisit—to once again be stunned by what he brings to the screen. If it's been a few years, you may find yourself seeing things in a whole new way. That's one of the beautiful things about cinema. The three films we've chosen highlight important parts of Bava's career and show how his work helped shape entire subgenres—from gothic horror to giallo to the slasher film. Whether you're discovering him for the first time or coming back for a fresh look, these films are a perfect place to begin. One quick correction: Edgar Wallace was a British writer, not American.

The Norman Queens of England who came to power after the invasion of William the Conqueror brought continental sophistication to the island kingdom. They fought fiercely for their rights and the rights of their children. One even went to wara against her husband. The Norman Queens consort and England's first male consort were: Matilda of Flanders Matilda of Scotland Adeliza of Louvain Matilda of Boulogne Geoffrey Plantagenet Eleanor of Aquitaine The lives of the many Kings and handful of Queens Regnant who have held dominion over the kingdom of England, and later the United Kingdom take center stage in history. But the lives of their spouses and mothers are often relegated to the wings. In this series we will learn the stories of the many Queens Consort and the handful of male consorts who have been at the monarchs' sides.

In this episode, Shawn and David wrap up the series on Ragnar Lobrok (cue dozens of solo episodes where Shawn and David have not in fact wrapped up their series on Ragnar Lodbrok), discussing chapters 18 - 20. In tandem with "The Tale of Ragnars Sons", you find out about the fates of the sons of Ragnar, including their deaths. There are then a couple of chapters of some nameless characters (well one is named), who in later years begin discussing the the heroic brothers either in their cups while getting drunk, or looking at monuments set to be reminders of them.The pair explore the descendents of these heroes, leading to the historical origins of 3 Scandinavian countries, Sweden, Denmark, and Norway, tying together the legendary sagas with historical figures like Gorm the Old, Harald Fairhair, and Eirik the Victorious. There is also an interesting passing of the torch where in 1066 William the Conqueror supposedly dug up the grave of Ivar the Boneless (deciding to burn his body), which may represent the end of Anglo-Saxon England and the Viking Age.Ways to support us:If you have been enjoying our show, please write a 5 star review on itunes to help spread our podcast to a wider audience:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/between-two-ravens-a-norse-mythology-podcast/id1604263830Buy Shawn a Beer or Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/tworavenpodcastFollow us for updates or send us a message on Instagram:Instagram: (@TwoRavensPodcast): https://www.instagram.com/tworavenspodcast/Check out David's writing: Walled Garden (https://thewalledgarden.com/davidalexander)Our podcast is part of The Walled Garden Podcast Network.

# The Conqueror's Path to Glory In the latest installment of our series, "More than Conquerors," we delve into **Romans 8** to explore the profound journey of faith and the role of suffering in the life of a believer. This journey, as outlined by Paul, is marked by the dichotomy of present sufferings and future glory. ## Key Themes Explored - **Adoption into God's Family**: As believers, we are not only saved but also adopted into God's family. This relationship allows us to call God "Abba, Father," a term of intimacy and trust, highlighting our close relationship with Him. - **Inheritance and Suffering**: While being heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ promises us the riches of heaven, Paul reminds us in **Romans 8:17** that suffering is a necessary part of this journey. Just as Christ endured suffering, so must we, to share in His glory. - **Purpose of Suffering**: Suffering is not without purpose. Paul reassures us in **Romans 8:18** that our sufferings pale in comparison to the glory that awaits us. This perspective is crucial to maintaining faith through trials. ## Creation and Redemption Paul paints a vivid picture of creation groaning in anticipation of its redemption, paralleling the believer's journey. Creation's current state of decay is a result of mankind's sin, yet it eagerly awaits the revelation of the sons of God, which will coincide with the second coming of Christ. - **Romans 8:19-22**: These verses emphasize that creation's struggles mirror our own, as both await liberation from the bondage of decay. ## The Role of the Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit is our guide and comforter, providing us with the firstfruits of the Spirit, a foretaste of the glory to come. This presence assures us that our journey will culminate in victory. - **Romans 8:23-25**: As we groan inwardly, the Spirit strengthens our hope, reminding us that our current struggles are temporary and will lead to ultimate redemption. ## Perseverance through Faith Drawing from **Hebrews 12:1-2**, the sermon encourages believers to emulate Jesus, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him. This passage serves as a powerful reminder that our path to holiness requires perseverance, much like the saints who have gone before us. ## Anticipation of Glory The anticipation of Christ's return is likened to waiting eagerly at an airport for a loved one's arrival. Though we endure suffering now, the joy of reunion with Christ will far outweigh our current trials. - **Romans 8:18**: Our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. This future glory is assured, and our hope is anchored in the promise of Christ's return. ## Conclusion The journey of faith, marked by suffering and hope, is a testament to God's redemptive plan. As believers, we are called to endure, keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. Through suffering, we are transformed, and our ultimate victory is secured in Christ. In this profound message, we are reminded that while suffering is part of our earthly journey, it is the path to experiencing the fullness of God's glory. Let us embrace this journey with hope and anticipation, knowing that we are indeed more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

Matilda of Flanders is the formidable consort of William the Conqueror, yet she is relatively unknown in the story of the 1066 conquest of England.

Jonathan Majors, once poised as the central villain Kang the Conqueror in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, still hopes to return despite being dropped following a guilty verdict in a domestic assault case. Marvel Studios has reportedly shifted its focus to Doctor Doom for future MCU phases, but Majors expressed a deep love for the Kang role, calling it one of the most challenging and unique of his career. In recent interviews, he confirmed he reached out to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige after his dismissal but received no response. Still, Majors believes that as long as fans continue talking about Kang, there's a chance for a comeback in Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars. While Marvel is unlikely to reinstate him, his comments have reignited conversation around Kang's potential return—either recast or written off through multiverse twists.

Luke 20:41-44
Well, good morning.That was worth getting up early for, wasn't it?Romans 7: Who Will Rescue Me From Sin?Spring ahead, and here we are.The last time we met, we dispelled a myth that is widely held among followers of Jesus Christ.Those of us who are more than conquerors in Christ.And that myth says that those who are more than conquerors are actually hopelessly doomed to defeat in sin.Okay, where does that idea come from?Traditionally, we interpret the closing verses of Romans 7 as giving us an out, a soft landing if we fail in our quest toward holiness, that quest to which we have all been called.And in that famous passage, it's where Paul confesses that the things he wants to do, he doesn't do.And the very things he really he doesn't want to do, those are the things that he finds himself doing.And so, as that passage comes to a close, he calls himself a wretched man and testifies that he is hopelessly trapped in this swirl of sin and death.But we concluded last week, and this is really important to understand, we concluded that that's not Paul's testimony.As Paul, the swashbuckling church planter who changed the world by preaching the good news of Jesus and planting churches among the Gentile cities.This was not, obviously, the man who boldly said, follow me as I follow Jesus.That kind of encouragement could only come from someone who was confident in that Jesus was going to enable him to overcome the temptation of the flesh.Rather, what we learned is that as chapter seven closes, Paul is telling the story of his life as Saul, the murderous persecutor and prosecutor of Christians, who, prior to meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus, was bound to the law and by the law.Romans 7 culminated in the acceptance of his own disheartening reality, which, if we have the courage, we will own it as our own.But it was his disheartening reality that because of his sin nature, the law which God gave through Moses and was good.But because of Paul's sinful nature, the law was too weak to give him victory in his pursuit of holiness without help.He recognized that he could not and would not ever get it Right.His noble quest for holiness would fall woefully short.So he cried out in desperation, what a wretched man I am.Who.Who will rescue me from.From this body that is subject to death.Now we feel that, or we should.It's a terrible place to be, but it's a necessary place to go.We all need to realize that without Jesus we are trapped in hopelessness and we are needing to be rescued.No amount of self reliance, determination or grit will enable us to free ourselves.Even with the perfect plan, which by the way, Saul had, and it came in the form of the law.Even with the perfect plan to extricate ourselves from the trap, we will fail.We will not, we cannot ever do enough to rescue ourselves.Becoming holy and forging a soul, satisfying life, edifying relationship with our Heavenly Father.It cannot happen.Can't happen.But there's some really good news.This is why we love the Scripture and God's revelation of the truth to us.The truth is that God wants that for us as much as we need it.He wants a relationship with us.He loves us, wants to be connected with us.So God came along and offered a rescue.Remember Paul's question, who will rescue me from this body of death?Well, God offers a rescue, a way of escape from the realm of sin and death and therefore a pathway to the realm of life for which we were created.It is a path whereby we are justified and not condemned.We're granted life and saved from death.We're made conquerors, not captives.And in that space we enjoy peace and not chaos.The way God made is both path and possibility.Let me say that again.The way God made for us is both path and possibility.And it is by faith in Jesus that we gain the path.And it is by following Jesus that we seize the possibilities.Now, having revealed that without Jesus we are more than conquered.That's what was going on in chapter seven.Paul steps back into the present.Now in Romans 8.So if you have your Bibles, want to turn there, Romans 8, he steps back into the present to say, that was then and this is now.But now everything is different.But now there is new life.But now I am more than a conqueror.But now I'm a victor.Because now I am in Christ Jesus who has set me free.That's where victory lies.We are in Christ Jesus who has set us free.Look at Romans 8 beginning in verse 1.Remember, he's in a terrible spot without Jesus.Then he says in verse one, therefore there is now no condemnation for those Who.Who are in Christ Jesus.Because through Christ Jesus, the law of the Spirit who gives life, has set you free from the law of sin and death.For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.And so he condemned sin in the flesh in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us who do not live according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.Now, those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires.But those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God.It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot, cannot, cannot please God.Paul reveals the Path to New LifeNow listen right here.Paul reveals two foundations of the new life that we have in Christ.First, he says there is a path, foundation of new life.There is a path.What God did in Christ, you know what he did, he dealt with sin effectively by loading it on Jesus, setting us free from the burdensome weight that we carry, trying to be holy, trying to be good.He loaded that burden on Christ.And second, he says there are possibilities, the guiding action of the Holy Spirit, whose great power and guidance keep us free.It's the Holy Spirit that enables us to live free and with victory.Now he begins by saying that the path that we find ourselves on by faith in Jesus is the path to new life.Okay?It's the path to the life we were born to live.And so he says, here and now, right now, with faith in Jesus, there is no condemnation for the sin that we could neither escape nor conquer.In the old realm before Christ, we can't get out from under the sin.We can't get it right.We can't conquer it.But in Christ, we are free from condemnation because Jesus came along to do for us what we could not do for ourselves, to fulfill the law.Okay?That was the objective, right here.Here are the laws.These are the top 10 things you're supposed to do.None of us are ever going to get all of that right.And so Jesus came along and said, hey, you know what?I'll just do it for him.And he did.Now we have to remember that in the old realm of death, the good law of God, which was the perfect plan if we could but enact It.It's the perfect path to life.It pointed to the way of life.But that plan was weakened by our sinful nature.We weren't strong enough to get the job done.The job was keeping the law, and we couldn't get it done.We could not make it to the finish line of the righteous life that God called us to.The burden was too much to bear.We couldn't get there.And as he actually points out in verse three, the law was powerless.It was too weak to break us free.Why?Because we were too weak in the flesh, okay?Our struggle with sin sapped us of strength.So when we got the plan, when God said, hey, Here are the 10 things, the laws that you need to follow to get it done, we were too tired, too burdened, too weary to step into that moment.We weren't strong enough to follow the plan.We couldn't carry the load.Now, the good news that Paul is announcing is that, hey, guess what?You don't have to hold up, okay?We don't have to carry the burden.God in Christ Jesus will take those burdens, freeing us to walk boldly into the realm of life.Now, that's a lot of heady theological talk.I want to try to illustrate it, something that I can understand.I hope you can, too.But let's say a few years back, my family's younger.We had a long, hard, bitter winter like the one we've just experienced.We endured it, got through it.I decided that what my family needed was a day at the beach.We're all going to go to the beach.So I load up the car.Actually, probably Nikki does most of the work.She loads up the car, beach towels, beach chairs, toys for the kids.I put the fishing pole, tackle box in the car.She's got a cooler packed for lunch that we're just hoping the kids won't feed the seagulls.We make our way out to Honeymoon island, okay?We find a parking spot and begin to make that laborious trip from the.Across the parking lot, across the sand to the water's edge.And when we get there, everybody grabs something, right?The kids get their toys.Nikki gets the bag with the sunscreen and the towels.But as the dad, like, what's my job?My responsibility is to carry the heavy stuff, right?As a matter of fact, in Foolish Pride, I determined that I And this really would have happened.I determined that I'm going to carry it all in one trip.So I take the cooler, stack the tackle box on top of the cooler, put the straps of the beach chairs over my shoulders.Grab the fishing rod and hold it close to my edge, right to my ribs, under my arm.Then I pick up the tackle box in the cooler and begin the walk as Nikki and the boys disappear onto the beach.It's a sight to see me.It's pathetic.I recognize that.But I'm going to do it.I'm determined, so I start walking right away.And what happens?Those straps from the chairs begin to slide off the shoulders.So it all goes down.Make some small adjustments that are probably not going to work.Pick the stuff up again, try again.Shuffling across the parking lot, I finally make it to the sand.And when I hit the sand, I discover that Jesus was right.The sand is where all the bad things happen, right?So sure enough, traction changes.The fishing rod slips out from under my arm, falls to the ground.I put all the stuff down to start over again.Frustration turns to madness when the guy comes prancing along with one of these.Do you know what this the beach cart.Like, I hate the beach cart.I really do hate the beach cart.Not because I don't need a beach cart.Obviously I need a beach cart.But I hate the beach cart because I don't have one.And this dude comes whistling by, not a care in the world.All of his burdens stacked neatly in the cart.Jesus Bothers All Our BodiesHe's happy, self satisfied.He loves the beach.He can't wait to get to the beach.And I'm not sure I ever will get to the beach.I'm literally crumbling under the weight of my burdens.A beach cart would change everything, but I don't have one.What a wretched man I am.Who will rescue me now in our quest for God's presence?The answer to that question is Jesus will.God loaded on him all the burdens, all the burdens.All the burdens that we are too weak to carry.750something years before he did it, Isaiah told us he would listen to Isaiah, chapter 53.Surely, surely, he took up our pain and bore our suffering.Yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him and afflicted.But actually he was pierced for our transgressions.He was crushed for our iniquities.The punishment that brought us peace was on him.And by his wounds we are healed.We all, like sheep, have gone astray.Each of us turned to our own way, trying to do it ourselves.And the Lord said, no, I'm going to lay on him the iniquity.God laid the burden on him.The cross was the cart.Jesus bore all of our burdens.When he died on the cross, or at least he offered to, he offered to carry our burdens.We just have to lay down our pride and let him take them.That's exactly what he invited us to do.Listen what he said to those who are following him.Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I'll give you rest.Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, because I'm gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.For my yoke is easy.My burden is light.In contrast to the burden that we think we have to bear when we give it to him.His burden is light.Jesus says, come on, I'll take it.You don't have to worry about sin.You don't have to worry about the law.I took care of it all.I lived a sinless life, kept all the laws, fulfilled the law.And then I took your burden, took it to the cross.I died for you that you could be free.See, sin had to be neutralized.The law had to be fulfilled.And Jesus did both.The power of sin erased, the law fulfilled.The burden had to be lifted for us to connect with our Creator.And it was.And now burden free.Progress toward holiness is possible for those who are in Christ Jesus.The goal of victory, establishing ourselves living as more than conquerors, is within reach in Jesus.It is the possibility.It's a possibility.If.Ah.Hey, if.If what?How is that possible?Because the reason we believe the myth that we are hopelessly trapped in sin is because it seems to play out.We live the myth.But the good news that God is delivering here is no, no.It's a possibility to live free.If you remember how Paul wrapped up verse four, what he said was the righteous requirement of the law is met in us if we live not by the flesh, but by the Spirit.Look back at verses three and four.For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh.God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh.He was just like us.He was a human, but he wasn't stained by sin.He was in the likeness of human flesh to be a sin offering.And so condemned sin is in the flesh in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us.God gives us credit for living up to the high standards of the law.When we place our faith in Jesus in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us who do not live according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit, the Victory is ours, the burden is lifted.Our demons are conquered.If in Jesus Christ we live not by the flesh but by the Spirit.So I guess we have to pause and say, do we live by the flesh or by the Spirit?The question is, how in the world do we live by the flesh?You know what I'm going to say.It's easier said than done, right?And that's true.Usually when we talk about something being easier said than done, we find that it's easy to describe.It's a very complex process for pulling off something that seems relatively simple, like folding a fitted sheet.Have you ever tried that?Get that right.Nicky's saying.Has he ever tried that?I don't think he has.I have.It didn't work.I don't know how to do that, but I know it's not simple, like folding a towel.I've done that a time or two.There's nothing simple about it.But in this case, living by the Spirit is very simple.It's not very easy.One thing's required.So it's really, really simple.No complexity.It's just not easy.Mind set on the flesh and spiritLook at verse five.Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires.But those who live in accordance with the spirit have their mind set on what the spirit desires.So it's just a mindset.Yet those who live by the spirit simply have their minds set on the Spirit.And those who don't have their minds set on the flesh.Here's what you need to understand about your mind.This is true.The fixed object of our minds determines where we go and what we do.You want to know what you think about?You can actually play the tape back and review what you did.It's an issue of the mindset, okay?Our souls, understand, have a one direction orientation.In other words, we are always moving one way.It can be one way or the other, but it is one way.It is impossible for us to do what Canadian philosopher and humorist Stephen Lecoq suggested, which is to jump on our horse and ride off in all different directions.Okay?We can't do that.That's not the way it works.We go one way or another.We don't go both.Now, Paul, in this passage of Scripture, has defined clearly the two ways we can go, two roads to travel.We can go in the direction of the flesh, or we can go in the direction of the spirit.And we will go where we make our minds up to go.Because whatever we have our minds set on, whatever we are devoted to is Going to determine the way we go.So if our minds are set on the flesh, what I want, what I need.If our minds are set on the flesh, we'll be governed by fleshly desires.And we are likely to take shortcuts to get what we want or need.But on the other hand, if our minds are set on the spirit, then we will be governed by the Spirit's desires one way or another.You can't go off riding in all directions.Now be warned.Verse 6 says, the mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.Again, this could not be more simple.Okay.Mind on the flesh equals death.The desires of the flesh misdirect us.The habits of the flesh entomb us.The heart of the thyroid, flesh fails us under the burden of the flesh.Flesh is death.But the mind of the Spirit, which is ours in Jesus, is not, might be, is life and peace.Now why is it that the mind of the Spirit is life and peace?The mind on the Spirit leads to life and peace because the Spirit, his job, his role, the gift to us from on high.He takes us back to Jesus, the one who exchanged our heavy burden for his easier burden.That's the role of the Spirit.Do you guys remember when Jesus was talking to his disciples?He knew they didn't get it, but he was trying to prepare them for the fact that he was on his way out.He was headed toward the cross.They were meeting in the upper room.It was going to happen the next day.And he had a meeting with his guys.And he was telling them, look, you can be at peace.You're going to have peace.Because in a strange sort of way, he was promising them that God was going to actually make things better for them after he was gone.And do you know how he said he would do it?John, chapter 14, verse 26.This is exactly what he said.But the advocate, the one who's going to cheer you on, the advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you, remind you of everything I have said to you.So what does that mean?That means when our mind is on the Spirit, he reminds us of Jesus words, His unfailing love, his implacable wisdom and his mighty power.He reminds us that he is our peace and that Jesus prayed that we would have his, the full measure of his joy.So with the Spirit's reminders, we are guided to victory and peace.We live in a victorious life.We are more than conquerors.I'LL sign up for that.You.surrender your will and submit to God'sSo what do we need to do to keep our mindset?What do we need to do to have the right mindset?Look at verses 7 and 8 of Romans 8.The mind governed by the flesh.Now do you see that the mind is on the flesh and therefore it yields to the governance of the flesh.That's what that means.The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God.It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so those who are in the realm of the flesh.Flesh cannot please God.Now this is the hardest and simplest part of all.What he's saying is to walk in victory, to live the life, the sustained life of the burden free conqueror, which is God's vision for your life.Now, I told you this the hard part.We have to surrender our will and submit to His.If we cling to our will, we are at war with God.That's the exercise of the flesh.And we will be more than conquered.But if we submit to his will, then we're free.We enjoy life and the good pleasures of God's delight.We please God.So the step is to surrender our will and submit to his.Thomas Keating said, the chief act of the will is not effort, but consent.That's submission.I consent to his will governing mine.The mind governed by the Spirit is life and pleases God.When our mind is set on the Spirit, then we yield our will back to God in loving trust, consenting to his plan, to his path, which is better than our own.It's exactly what Jesus did.Do you remember in the garden?Everything was pointing to this moment.And he got there and his flesh was saying, let's get out of this deal in the flesh.He didn't want to die on the cross and he surrendered his will and submitted to God's.Nevertheless, not my will, but thy will be done.It's not what I want.It's what you want.I surrender.Someone has said that it's more difficult to yield the will than yield the will.Wield it.It's more difficult to yield it than wield it.That's consent.It's the path to greatness in his kingdom.It's the path to burden free victory.Paul, writing to the Philippians, said this.Let this mind be in you.That is also in Christ Jesus.That's the mindset.God help us surrender our will so we can submit to yours.Let's bow our heads and pray.Lord, we appreciate the simplicity of all of it.That we're burdened by sin.It's a burden we can't carry.We want to go where you're calling us to go, but we can't get there without help.We're grateful, Father, that you sent Jesus in love to make the path, to clear the way, take up the burdens for us, set us free to walk into life and peace and victory.Lord, I pray if there's anyone here who hasn't taken that step to place their faith in Jesus.Just pray, Lord, that they'll remember that the cross is the cartoon.The burdens all go neatly on the cross.Christ takes them away.And the beautiful part is we gain that path.It's by faith we choose to believe that Jesus lived a perfect life life that he submitted to your will and died.On the cross.You demonstrated your victory, the power of the spirit.You raised him from the dead.You are our living hope.So Father, I pray if anyone needs to believe today, that by your spirit you would draw them to belief and grace them with life.And Father, for those of us who have embraced the path, I pray that we'll meet the if we'll do what we need to do to set our minds on life in the spirit.Lord, right now, by your spirit, bring.Bring to mind those things that we are focused on that we need to hand over to you.Help us, Lord, to surrender our will so we can submit to yours.Thank you for the path, thank you for the possibilities and thank you for the promise of victory and the peace that comes.Because we are more than conquerors through Christ who gives us strength.It's in his mighty name that we pray.Amen.
