This Is How We Overcome

A worship song by Hillsong. The word "overcomes" is a common word that runs throughout the letters to the seven churches in the book of Revelations. "To him that overcomes... I will..." (Revelations 2 - 21). In his letters to the seven churches, they are each commended for certain aspects pertaining to living the Christian life. However, we also see that each of the churches are not perfect. They had their own flaws.

Likewise, we know that living the Christian life comes with many trials and suffering. No one said it would be easy. In fact, Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 4:11-13 that, "To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless. We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; when we are slandered, we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world."

But to him that overcomes, God will reward on the day when Jesus comes again. Trust in God to help us through our times of suffering. Lean on the Holy Spirit's power to empower us to live holy lives for Him. Believe in the saving power of Christ's blood, that has removed our sins and granted us salvation through Him. Love and cherish our new relationship with God, that we can now come to Him through Christ who has made us righteous in His sight. This is how we overcome. Thank you Jesus!
