OVERCOMING

 
 
1 John 5:4


"For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith." NIV


"For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." KJV


The natural man works to overcome the world by common sense, learned behavior, and knowledge gained from the world. Sometimes this works, but for the most part it is temporary and incomplete at best. True faith in the Son of God by salvation in Christ will provide us with all we need to overcome the obstacles in this world. Without faith, we cannot be successful overcomers.


Heavenly Father, how we stand humble before you that we have tried to defeat the trials in this world by our own strength. Forgive us. Help us to use the faith You have lavishly supplied to us so that we can overcome this world as You did. We praise You and thank You for the gift of faith and overcoming power. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
