Good
Morning!
In
Friday's Encouragement, The Lord was giving us scriptures about His Covenant
promises to us concerning being "victorious" and having
"victory" in our lives and circumstances. Today, I want to talk
about how this all "works"! 1 John 5: 4 tells us that if
we are born of God, then we will be "victorious over the world" (
worldly challenges ), and it tells us WHAT causes us to be
victorious and more than "conquerors" . . . It is our FAITH! Then
verse 5 tells us WHO can have victory and be conquerors . . .
it is the one who "adheres to, trusts in, and relies upon that fact
(truth)"! I know that The Lord wants to show us how we can get
these "end results" . . . we have to "start"
somewhere, before we can get to that place of VICTORY! It is called . .
. "line upon line, precept upon precept"!
Before we get started on
that, I want you to think about this ~~~~ nowhere in the Word of God, are we
referred to as "survivors"! We are always referred to as
"overcomers" . . . there is a difference between
"surviving" and "overcoming"! Many Christians are
willing to just "accept" being able to "survive", not
having a revelation that God has equipped them to "overcome"! So,
what is this "overcoming equipment" that God has given you?
Scroll back up and read it again . . . it is our FAITH!
If that seems a little
"vague" to you, then stay tuned in . . . because, tomorrow The Holy
Spirit will take us to the "starting line" and bring us to the
"finish line"! We CAN be more than
"survivors"! We can be "overcomers" and have the
VICTORY over everything that the enemy can throw at us! I don't know
about you, but this just makes me "shouting happy"! Come
on now! Give God a big "shout" of PRAISE!
Have
a Blessed Day!!
(Get ready . . . get ready!)
In His Love, Luanne
