We can overcome the trials and tribulations of this world!
No matter what the enemy may throw at us, no matter what challenges we may face, we can walk in victory.
Why?
1Jo 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as that One is righteous. 8 He who practices sin is of the Devil, for the Devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was revealed, that He might undo the works of the Devil.
Ø “He who does righteousness is righteous, even as that One is righteous”; even as that One is righteous. In and through Jesus Christ, we have been made righteous. We can walk in victory, because we have been made righteous in Christ.
Ø “For this purpose the Son of God was revealed, that He might undo the works of the Devil.”; The works of satan has been made null and void. Jesus overcame and made a public spectacle of him.
Will satan still challenge and test? Yes. However, because of the final work on the Cross, we have the victory. Jesus declared that “It is finished” The task at hand was accomplished. The works of the devil has been undone. Death has no further hold on the believer. :
1Co 15:51 Behold, I speak a mystery to you; we shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed; 52 in a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet. For a trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall all be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 But when this corruptible shall put on incorruption, and when this mortal shall put on immortality, then will take place the word that is written, "Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?" 56 The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the Law. 57 But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord.
Ø So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord.:
Do not waver and do not fall for the traps and snares of the evil one. We can overcome!
