Welcome to this Our New Month of Victory At Last, in Jesus name.
The Bible uses many terms to describe those who have entered into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. For instance, we are called Christians.
We are also called the children of God; children of light; children of obedience etc.
But there is another title John used, and it is the title “Overcomers”. 1st John 5:4 – “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith”
This Scripture depicts our victorious lives. Over-comer literally means victor. One of the truths about a Christian believer is that he is in Christ.
The Believer is in an indivisible union with Christ Himself and as a result, is a partaker of His divine nature.
He partakes of everything that Christ is and has, including His inheritance, righteousness, death, life, and Spirit. Since Christ is a victor, we par-take of His victory.
The believer then, is a victor. Those who have been born of God are true overcomers, conquerors, victors. Brethren, this last 2017 month of Victory At Last, we have victory over satan (Rev. 11:12 - "They overcame him by the blood of the lamb…”); over death (1st Cor.15:54 – “…Death is swallowed up in victory”); and over the world (1st John 5:4 – "Whatever is born of God overcometh the world") through Jesus Christ, our Lord & Savior, in Jesus Name.
Amen.
