Psalm 108:7 God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Succoth. 8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter. 9 Moab is my washbasin, upon Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph."The lands mentioned are part of the roll call of God's victories. Oh, the blessing to have the Lord call my name out loud, claiming me as His territory!
Before the Lord conquered my heart, I was God's enemy (Romans 5:10). All mankind since Adam have been born as enemies of God, "As it is written: 'There is none righteous, no, not one,'" (Romans 3:10).
Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
By God's grace, He conquered me by the blood of His Love, shed on Calvary's cross, and I have been His vanquished territory ever since.
Dear Reader, do you know that "...it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment," (Hebrews9:27)?
When God calls His final roll, will you be among those conquered souls destined to spend an eternity of love, life, and joy in the presence of God our creator and savior?
If the answer is no, or you are not sure, don't waste another moment, but bend your knee and ask God to include you among those who have been conquered by His saving love. It's by His grace He will grant you to receive and believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, whose death upon the cross and resurrection from the dead has bought the right for you to live, simply by believing in His name.

Father, Yours is the power and the mercy even now to bring one lost sheep into Your fold. I pray by Your grace and mercy to instill a prayer of salvation into one lost sinner's heart. Thank-You, Lord. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
