PEACE IN HIM-2

Text : John 16:33 

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."
 
Yesterday, we saw that as a believer, your peace is in Christ Jesus and not in this world. He declared that you will have tribulations in this world. 

While no one likes tribulations, it is one sure thing that Jesus said we would encounter. He however gave us a comforting word that we should be of good sheer because he had already overcome the world. 

You could liken the world to a very big python whose head has been smashed but its body is still having a measure of life. In the same way, Jesus has conquered the world, though it's still throwing tribulations at you. 

A dead python whose head has been smashed and cut off can still be very scary and fearful, but it can no longer do much or any harm again, even if it's body is still moving.

In the same manner, Jesus said, "...be of good cheer, I have overcome the world"  
 *For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. (1 John 5:4)* 

 *You need to stay in faith in order to continuously stay in the victory that Christ has wrought for you.* 

 *Faith in your heart will drive away your fears and troubles, and it will always keep you in PEACE.* 

*BIBLE READING* : 

1 John 5::4-5.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

Father, thank you for giving me your enduring peace. I therefore confess that my heart shall no longer be troubled in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
