There i s a lot in this life we must overcome to move forward in our life, and God has made provisions for us by sending His Son and the power we have through the Holy Spirit to make us overcomer’s. When we are born again by the spirit of the living God we have the power to overcome our adversities! (1 John 5:4-6) 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? 6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
In Jesus’ own words He tells us we have peace in Him and to not lose hope, because He has already overcome the world in which we live (John 16:32,33) 32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. 33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
There is great reward for living an overcoming life that was lived for the Lord. We are the children of the living God when we overcome, and will one day inherit all things God has prepared for His own (Revelation 21:6-8) 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. (1 John 4:4-6).
Amen. Because Jesus has overcome the world, I trust in His Word that He has given me strength to overcome as well. 🙌
