For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that ahs overcome the world – our faith. 1 John 5:4
Have you ever
considered the strength of your faith? Faith is something that trusts, has
confidence in….like a chair you sit in, you believe when you sit, it will hold
you up. You have faith in a lot of things, your vehicle, your ability to walk,
do things…the list is endless. But there is one element of faith in God that
needs a closer look.
Today’s verse
clearly states that your faith can overcome the trials and tribulations of this
world. Your faith in God is what gives you strength to have victory over
attacks by the enemy (satan). The more faith you have in God to sustain and
protect you, the stronger you’ll be in the battle to keep you bound to sin and
things that work against your relationship with the Lord.
“In the world you
will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John
16:33
Jesus was clear when
He said we’d have trials in life. But, by faith in Him, you can overcome the
world through your faith in Him. It sounds easy, but sometimes in the heat of
the battle, fear can creep in to weaken your faith. It’s important to keep your
focus on God, not your problem. Your resources are limited when you view your
problems alone, but by faith you can conquer them through prayer and trust in
God to help you.
Your born again
experience sealed you into an eternal promise, your faith has saved you for all
eternity. Use your faith in God to overcome the obstacles life throws at you. The
battle has already been won, keep the spirit of victory with you as you head
out into the world today! God bless!
