How To Be An Overcomer!
"Who is he who overcomes the world,
but he who believes that Jesus is
the Son of God?"
1 John 5: 5
At halftime on December 17,
2022, the
Minnesota Vikings trailed the Indianapolis
Colts 33–0. Some of fans gave up. But the
Vikings came alive in the second
half, won
in overtime, and set the record for largest
comeback in NFL history.
That wasn’t the greatest comeback in history.
That happened Easter Sunday, when Satan
and his hosts thought they had won, only to
be routed when Jesus rose from the dead.
We often think everything is against us.
Discouragement piles onto
discouragement,
and we feel defeat in our hearts. But God is
the King of comebacks.
God reverses tides, weaves circumstances
into threads of gold, and turns curses into
blessings. He specializes working all things
for the good of His dear children.
No matter how dark the situations in our life
may become, our hope is anchored in Jesus
Christ and in His power over death. Thank
Him today for the victories He has given
and for all that are yet to
come.
"Outside of Christ, I have
been defeated; in Christ,
I am already victorious."
