“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.”

John 16:33

Your Encouragement

God entered time as an actual human being in Christ Jesus (Heb. 2:14). He lived, experienced, and faced every kind of temptation that comes our way; and overcame them.

The good news is that because Christ conquered sin in the flesh. In Him, we can also overcome sin and every temptation that confronts us. Through the Holy Spirit, those who, by faith, draw near to receive strength from Him win the victory.

When we are weak, His grace will pick us up. For God perfects His power in our weakness to bring glory to His name (2 Cor. 12:9).

So, celebrate the victory of Christ over the world and all its challenges today. Your assurance is His power that flows through the Holy Spirit, to overcome in His name. And may His peace rest and abide with you always. Amen!

Shalom, and good morning.
