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.
