Overcomers

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord.

Primary Text

“He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne. He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).” Revelations 3v21-22 (AMP)

There is a victory for God’ children, which is revealed at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. We see as in the verse above that as the Lord spoke to the churches, He would tell them to heed what the Spirit is saying, and as well the reward for overcoming. In a sense, He would tell them things He has noticed either good or bad and advise them on what needs to be corrected, if any; or encourage them. Afterwards He would tell them about the overcomers reward (see Revelations 2-3). Heaven is very real and the coming of our Lord Jesus is very real. What footprint are you leaving in life? What legacy are you leaving behind, and where would you spend eternity?  In this journey, our Lord wants us to succeed, indeed He causes us to triumph in Christ (2 Corinthians 2v14). But we need to be doers of His Word and not hearers only (James 1v22). Our Lord Jesus was an overcomer, and through Him we can be too. The question is, are you willing?

Prayer

Father we thank You for Your Word. We want to be overcomers and spend eternity with You o God. Help us. We pray according to Jude 1v24-25, and give all glory to You who alone is God, who saves us through Jesus Christ our Lord; yes, splendor and majesty, all power and authority are Yours from the beginning; Yours they are and Yours they evermore shall be. And You are able to keep us from slipping and falling away, and to bring us, sinless and perfect, into Your glorious presence with mighty shouts of everlasting joy. Amen.
