Have you ever overcome a major obstacle in your life? For some, it may have been trying to go to school, or go back to school, while raising a family and working a full time job. For others, it may have been a physical challenge that required a lot of time and effort. For others, it may have been letting something go and knowing that GOD was going to take care of it.
We will all have obstacles in our lives, obstacles that need to be overcome. Each time we overcome a challenge, each time we find ourselves persevering, each time we defeat an obstacle, we grow a little more in our faith. Faith gets stronger when we exercise it.
Today's word is 1 John 5:4, NLT, which reads, "For every child of GOD defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith."
If you are a child of GOD, you can know that, come what may, you already have the victory. We know that JESUS defeated death, hell, and the grave; and, so shall we. We know that difficult times will come but ultimately, we will be victorious. And, where does that victory come from? Our faith. We know that GOD is on our side and that He will lead us safely through.
Got an obstacle that needs tackling? Got a challenge that needs to be overcome? Got some persevering to undertake? We can rest assured that GOD will faithfully help us to do each and every one of those, and more. Not faith in ourselves, but, faith in the One that will lead us through. For, we, His children, will defeat this world through our faith.
Be Blessed,
