'Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
(1 John 5:5).
Life without Christ is no life at all! You have to be born of the water and of the Spirit. It is Christ who made it possible for us to regain that which was lost in Eden, due to the entrance of sin. It is only through Christ that we can be overcomers, since we were all born in sin and shaped in iniquity. But those who are born of God, that is, believing by faith that Jesus is the Son of God will overcome the world. It was Christ who went to the Cross for us, and had victory over death and the grave, that we can experience eternal life in Him. When we are overcomers, we will have victory over worldly sins and temptations; because Jesus, our Saviour has already defeated these powers of darkness. Christ was God in the flesh, who came down from heaven to redeem us from the bondage of sin and the clutches of Satan. Why? Because He loves us unconditionally and wants to save us. That is why Christ, the Son of God died such a horrible death that He didn't deserve, so we could live the life we deserved. What an awesome God! Christ victory is our victory. It is that victory, which is the faith that overcomes the world. We must believe that Jesus is the Son of God, so we may become one with him through the Spirit, and be able to partake of His victory over the world. We need to understand that we cannot do anything of ourselves, it is only Christ in us who gives us the strength and power to overcome. Let us thank God, who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. We have overcome because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Let us therefore continue to live by faith; that is, trusting and obeying God, and keep loving Him and each other until Jesus comes to take us home.
Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹
'But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you' (Matthew 6:33). The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and
