Overcome by faith
Text: “….for whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith...” 1John.5:4.
Beloved, you are born of God with an anointing to overcome. “Faith” is the victory that overcomes or puts you over in life’s challenges. In the battles of life, when faith is in place, victory is sure because there is no problem in life that Bible faith cannot concquer. Faith is a force just as righteousness is a force; and there is nothing in creation that cannot be subdued by the force of faith!
In-fact, when anything appears to be subduing you, it is an indication of the fact that you’ve not built your “faith” in that area of your life, because when faith is in place, it subdues! Hebrews.11:33 talks about folks “who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouth of lions…”
In the gospels, anywhere you see the power of God manifested in miraculous dimensions, faith was in action. Anytime, anywhere God saw faith, God moved and the supernatural intervened. The reverse is also true that when unbelief and doubt was present, the power of God was “limited” in a sense. Matthew 13:58…“Jesus could do no mighty works there because of their unbelief.”…… Not because He didn’t want to, or because the sins of their ancestors was so great or worse still, because the devil was too strong, No! The people of Nazareth didn’t receive miracles simply because they had no faith in Jesus Christ.
Beloved, believe God and put your faith to work. All things are still possible to anyone that believes. Matthew.17:20.
Memory Verse: “…but without faith it is impossible to please Him…Hebrews 11:6.
Prayer point: Say…I am a faith child of a faith God; I am a believer and not a doubter. God’s word is more real to me than my circumstances, that is what I believe and speak over my life, and I declare that no matter what the economy of the world looks like, I will not panic. My needs are met, I am abundantly supplied and in times of famine I shall be satisfied. Thank you father that I am a victor and an overcomer because of my union with Christ. I will never be a victim in Jesus name, amen.
Our Prayer for You: May your faith make you whole in Jesus name, amen.
