 'He that overcometh shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my son'
(Revelation 21:7).

If we desire to live a victorious life in Christ, we shall be overcomers.  Christ had won the victory on the cross; through his death and resurrection; and being our Judge and High Priest. God promised that all who are victorious will inherit all these blessings he has in store for us, and will be our God and we being his children. Every day we faced temptations and trials, but through Christ, as believers we can overcome them, by handing them over to Jesus. For greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world (1 John4:4). Satan knows he has been defeated and that he is doing everything in his power to carry out aggressive onslaught against all who  have been saved by the precious blood of the lamb. We know what Jesus Christ did for us at Calvary and has overcome the world, the flesh and Satan. Satan only has power when we give him control of our lives. Let Christ reigns in our lives and we give him full control of our heart, thoughts and attitudes. Trust Him and what he has done for us at Calvary. Christ had overcome the world and so can we, if we believe He is the Son of God and following his footsteps. It is only in Christ that we can be overcomers as our nature is to sin, we cannot do it in out own strength. We are co-labourers with Christ, heirs of God and joint-heir with Christ. We are united together in Him by faith. Let us seek to live a life of an overcomer, knowing our past, present and future victory is secure in Christ.

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...

 'Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;' (Titus 2:12). The grace of God brings salvation to all men, seeking a change in our conduct and attitude towards God and one another. It advocates a turning away from sin, and helps the believer in Christ to reject sinful desires and refrain from ungodly living. The grace of God teaches us to avoid behaviours that are sinful and will not enhance our lives; but it is to move us towards right behaviour and right thinking. Paul was instructing Titus to teach   boldly and with authority the conduct and behaviour God expects from His people. To encourage right thinking and behaviour by them living soberly, upright and godly lives. We are also encouraged as Believers in Christ to do the same. We must allow ourselves to be taught by the great Teacher, Jesus Christ, our Lord, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as we search the Scriptures daily an...

 'The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him' (Lamentations 3:25). For many people, waiting is not something we like to do. Waiting can bring about stress, anxiety, irritability and impatience at some points in our lives. It can also bring joy, peace, hope and happiness. We all encounter waiting in our different ways, whether its news of a new arrival in the family where there may be complications; news of a health condition; news of a love one pulling through an illness; news of a job promotion; and for believers waiting with hope and anticipation for the coming of Lord Jesus. Here Jeremiah is saying to Israel and to us that, "The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him." What is the benefit of waiting on the Lord? The Lord will renew our strength, he will not allow us to be weary or faint (Isaiah 40:31). He will be good to all who wait upon him. The Lord  will also be good to us when we search for him. W...
