This Is the Victory!
I John 5:4
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
My dear friend, I greet you in Christ once more.
Would you believe that I actually missed writing to
you, even for these past few days? It seemed like an
eternity. . .I was a bit distraught for a while there,
but our Conqueror and King has marvelously helped me
out of a sticky technical tough spot! To God be all
the praise. If I didn’t know it before, I certainly
am reassured now that He cares about those little
things that concern us. When we call on Him for help,
He always answers us! What a wonderful Lord and Savior
we have in Jesus! Hallelujah!
Yesterday, the Lord told me to encourage His people to
hold on and wrestle for our promises. He will come
through for us. The warring angels are wrestling in
the heavenlies against principalities, rulers of
darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places on
your behalf.
We must believe so vehemently, that our faith will
pull down every demonic stronghold that stands before
us. Believe for what you do not yet see!
Hold on, though, and wrestle like Jacob wrestled.
What was his reward for holding on? He received a
name change, and was given supernatural power and
favor - with God and with man. He prevailed. You
shall prevail also, as long as you fight that good
fight of faith. Don’t be weary in the fight. Don’t
faint. Don’t let go.
You are of God, dear one. You are an overcomer. You
are above sin. Your spirit is joined to the might,
strength and power of divinity, and you are one with
Him. As He overcame the world, doubt, drawback and
fear, so shall you also overcome these “little foxes.”
God said to remember that He is not a man. He does not
lie. He’s faithful. His Word is His bond. As He
rewarded Abraham’s faith, so will He reward your
faith. You’re Abraham’s seed, and that makes you a
child of faith. Encourage yourself in the Lord as you
rehearse scriptures of faith daily.
After you’ve done all you can do, stand! Believe! Be
encouraged, and smile!
Christ says to you today – “Be of good cheer, for I
have overcome the world." He overcame satan, death,
the grave, and hell for you and for me. By our words
of faith that we profess, we have the victory.
