Overcome the World
“For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.” ~1 John 5:4
Overcoming the world! If you google that, you might be added to some secret list somewhere. Thoughts of foreign entities taking ownership strikes chords of fear, but John is telling us that there is no reason to be afraid! We already have that victory in Jesus Christ. His work on the Cross secured our destiny with a 100% guarantee. We are secure…forever and ever! Yes, bad things may happen, but this time is just a drop in the bucket of eternity. And undeserved suffering leads to great reward!
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 “For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are for a season, but the things which are not seen last forever.”
Keep your eye on the prize, the light at the end of the tunnel, even when you cannot see it, be assured that it is there! And Jesus is holding your hand, or carrying you, every step of the way. You are an overcomer. Jesus did it and we are in Him.
1 John 4:4 “You are of God, little children, and you have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”
John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but have courage, I have overcome the world."
Thanks be to God!
Have a blessed day!
