Overcome The World!
"Peace I leave with you, My peace
I give to you; not as the world gives
do I give to you. Let not your heart
be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
John 14: 27
Whenever someone goes through a
disabling physical incident, physical
therapy is often required.
The doctor or physical therapist might say,
“This event in your life is going to take two
years to solve. At the end of your physical
therapy, you'll have a healthy and fruitful
life.”
When Jesus prepared to leave earth and
return
to the Father, He told His disciples, “In the world
you will have tribulation.” That sounds daunting
and discouraging; how would they survive the
future?
But Jesus didn’t end there. He also said,
“But be of good cheer, I have overcome the world”
(John 16:33). The future will be challenging, but I
am telling you ahead so that you will persevere.
Nothing can separate you from My love
(Romans 8:31-39).
We live in life-changing times which will likely
become even more challenging (Matthew 24:
4-14). Thank God today Christ has overcome
the world.
"If you don’t surrender to Christ,
you surrender to chaos."
