Beloved, we are more than conquerors? Do you believe this? The movie War Room powerfully demonstrated how prayer works against evil.

Then I visited Holley Gerth.com, reading “What’s True About Us/No Matter What We May Hear” and I had just answered question on the study Fervent about how Satan doesn’t let us forget our past.
