VICTORY OVER THE WORLD – PASTOR CHRIS
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).
Think about the fact that the verse we just read was written by the Apostle John. God gave him that wisdom, that revelation. He wasn’t just prophesying; he was writing about the life that we have in Christ, the life he and the rest of the apostles lived. This was the mentality they had. They were raised to think victory only.
They had been with the Lord Jesus and had come to understand the message of the divine life: whatsoever is born of God has victory over the world and subdues the world. This means you have power over the world because you’re born of God: “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures” (James 1:18).
“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13). Because you’re born of God, you’ve conquered the world. You’ve prevailed over the world. You didn’t need to make an effort; it happened simply by your being born of God. Hallelujah!
You’ve conquered the world and its systems and corrupting influences. Nothing in this world is to your disadvantage. This must be your way of thinking. You have to train and see yourself in this light. When the pressures of life come against you, remember who you are and affirm that you have power over this world, its pressures, adversities and decadence. You have power over Satan, sicknesses, diseases and infirmities. Your faith in Christ has given you the victory. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for my faith that gives me victory over the world. I refuse to be moved by circumstances. I live triumphantly and reign victoriously over the systems of this world, its pressures, adversities, decadence and corrupting influences by the power of your Spirit and through the Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
