Every Child God
Defeats
This Evil World
Scripture
1 John 5
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too.
2 We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments.
3 Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.
4 For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.
5 And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
Observation
This chapter is packed with great stuff for you and me – we have to take time to read and re-read 1 John 5 today.
It will only take a couple of minutes, but lets give ourselves time to think about what we are reading and reread it a couple of times!
Read it in a translation that you can easily understand!
I just read it I am still thinking about it!
This world is evil and corrupt to the core. Who is the only person that can have victory in this evil world?
Only a child of God – only those who believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God!
We are the only ones that have victory in this “dog eat dog” evil world! And we achieve this victory through our faith!
This great verse was also in today’s Bible reading!
Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and incomprehensible things you do not know. Jeremiah 33:3 HCSB
Application
Everyday I am engaged in spiritual warfare. Every day is a battle. I have victory through my faith in Jesus Christ. How about you?
Prayer
