MADE TO OVERCOME

1 John 5:4 NLT For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.

I received the following comment in an email yesterday from a ministry we support - ‘You weren’t made to give up or back down—you were made to overcome!’

God knows when we need a shot of encouragement to keep us going, to help us overcome. He knows when we’re up and when we’re down, and everything in between and I’m so grateful for that. He knows us better than we know ourselves and He has everything we’re going to need ready before we need it.

God is awesome in His love and care of us. Nothing takes Him by surprise and nothing is beyond His ability to turn around on our behalf, so be encouraged today. Remember how powerful He is, but let’s not forget He is also our Good Shepherd who lovingly cares for His sheep individually.😊

He sees our struggles and has promised to uphold and strengthen us when the battles rage in our lives, whether they are battles in our health, in our minds, our finances, our families, or our work. 

God wants us to know we can turn to Him day or night and expect Him to hold us steady and strong, to be able to overcome by the blood of the Lamb. Don’t listen to the lies of the enemy that say any different. God is our rock, always has been and always will be, now believe it and hold on to it.😊

He has promised to bring to completion all that concerns us, and He will (Psalm 138:8 NLT The Lord will work out his plans for my life—for your faithful love, O Lord, endures forever...). 

So if you’ve been feeling worn out or worn down, lift your head up today and rest in the sure knowledge that He has you safe in the palm of His strong hand. He is holding you steady and strong, You are an overcomer, and you will overcome with His help. In Jesus name. Amen.
