OVERCOMER
OVERCOMER
Are you an overcomer? If you are walking with Christ Jesus, you are capable of being or becoming an overcomer.
You are probably asking yourself what is an overcomer?
An overcomer: Merriam Webster Dictionary vs Scripture
Definition of overcomer (Merriam Webster Dictionary)
a person who overcomes something : one who succeeds in dealing with or gaining control of some problem or difficulty
Scripture
1 John 4:4
“You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.”
1 John 5:5
“Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?”
Revelation 3:21
“'He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne”
The contrast difference between the two definitions:
With the Merriam Webster definitions:
It is SELF doing it all contingent upon your ability; your efforts
With Scripture:
It is our Faith in Jesus Christ, our walk with Him that will allow us to overcome the obstacles, the struggles that we are confronted with because it is not us that actually does the over coming it is Christ that is in us.
As a Christian, we no longer have to rely on self effort to accomplish the things in life we are pursuing.
You see, as we begin to walk closer with God, things on the inside of us begin to change. We slowly begin to see things / places / people differently. Our wants and desires; our will begin to change. We no longer desire the things of this world but begin to long for the will and the desire of the Father.
When we get into agreement with the Father and desire what he desires, we then are in line with Him.
Once we are in line with Father God, when an obstacle, barrier or rough terrain comes our way be it in a relationship…. marriage, children, neighbor, work or whatever it is your seeking, if you are truly in step with Father God you will know this is His will for you to have the thing you seek and you won’t have to worry if it will work out, you have the confidence in knowing it will.
There most certainly will be trials and tribulations in this world, but take heart, Jesus overcame the world....
John 16 v 33....NIV
“I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
