1 John 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
I am not exempt from pain, sickness, or loss. I live in a world that is unfair to say the least. But there is something different about me, and not only me, but everyone who follows Christ. I am an overcomer. As wicked and unjust as this world can be, I can lean upon the word that says "greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4). It is that simple, but it isn't always that easy. When everything seems to be going wrong, it is sometimes hard to stand up and declare that we are overcomers, even though we really are. This is why we must look at the most important word that is in our Scripture today.........FAITH. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Faith moves mountains and conquers the biggest of adversaries. Faith is also our only way to please Him. If faith is such an important part of our walk with God and our ability to overcome, then it should be our greatest priority to protect and grow faith! How do we do that, you ask? Get into God's Word in such a way that you start believing what He is saying, and when you start believing what He is saying, you will start doing what He does.....OVERCOME! Amen.
This is so true.And how it works is beyond me , but I have tested it and found that it is true. The more I read and study the more energy and strength I seem to have. The things that are hard to deal with seem to be easier and sometimes flat out nothing. As I stop reading as much I find myself getting weak and easily overwhelmed with things. Like I said I don't know exactly how it works but I know it does! Gotta go read, whose in?
