Faith That Overcomes
Saturday, September 16, 2023Key Verse
“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” 1 John 5:4
Text — 1 John 5: 1- 5
Message
The world we live in today is full of challenges that are difficult to overcome. Satan is making a lot of people do wicked things to fellow human being’s without caring how they feel. He has power over many of such people because he is the one controlling their lives. Even children are not left out by the devil; he uses them to destroy other people’s lives and properties if they follow his ways. The end of such is destruction if they do not repent and stop following Satan.
However, they cannot hurt you if you are a friend of Jesus who has faith in Him. Your faith will overcome all the works of the devil because you are not under his control. The Greater One (Jesus), lives in you. God is living in you and directing your ways. Keep your faith in Christ strong and you will always be an overcomer. Remember, “… whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”
