“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit” (I John 4:4, 13).
God wants us to understand our identity that we have come from Him. We have the Spirit of God, we have the joy of the Lord, we have our origin in God, and because of that, we have overcome the world. We have overcome those who are against God’s word. We have overcome those who propagate negative thoughts. We have overcome depression, sorrow, disappointment, and regret. It’s a question of who we are. We are not our own, we are of God, and we are of Christ. We are victorious and more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. And He reminds us that we have overcome them. Who? We have overcome the Spirit of antichrist that stands in opposition to the purposes of God in the world. We have overcome the spirit that stands in rebellion to God’s word.
As you begin your day every day, I want you to be reminded of your identity in Christ. That you are from God, and therefore you are of God. And then I want you to be reminded of your victory, because in Christ, we have overcome the world. The scripture reminds us that We have overcome the world because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. What a position for our lives, what a privilege that we carry. What power, and what authority that we have. You can walk in victory today because the Holy Spirit can help you believe His truth instead of lies. God’s word can help you overcome circumstances that you didn’t think you could. God is greater than anything that fights against you. Christ has overcome the world, and He lives in you. We have the same power that raised Jesus up from the grave. We have the authority to speak out against disappointments, depression, anxiety, sorrow, and regret. We have the authority to speak out against the darkness, fear, sickness, and death.
