A televised Pastor had a great segue into his message. He opened with the following: “When I ask how someone is, and they reply with ‘I’m fine under the circumstances’ that bothers me, because we are not under our circumstances, instead we are over our circumstances.”
And that is true, with Christ we are victorious…and we are overcomers. Through Him, each of us are conquerors, “under His power” and strength. But of course it’s mainly through His unmerited Grace that we can overcome. He is with us through it all. Our happy times, our sad times, our anguished times, our grieving times, and during all of our celebrations. Always.
When we order something out of our lives, and take command of it, by the power of Jesus Christ, we are covered by His blood. He gave us the gift of salvation, and by His stripes we were healed. (Isaiah 53:5)
Fear shouldn’t be in our lives, when we have Christ. Christ’ love and Spirit within inherently pushes out “fear” because we were created in perfect love. In love there is no room for fear. (1 John 4:18) His Spirit fills our inner selves to full capacity. With Him, in our life, there isn’t anything we can’t accomplish.
The world is treacherous at times, but when we are grounded in His foundation, we are sure-footed. throughout our journey. while here in our flesh bodies.
Overcomers have the knowledge, relationship, trust and love in the LORD. and follow His commandments, and seek His face daily, in all we do. This of course allows for confidence, and inherently sets us up to walk the “narrow” path of righteousness…eventually to gain our rewards in our Eternal home.
Turn to the LORD for a life worth living.
Turn to the LORD for an education about humanity.
Turn to the LORD for a love that’s fulfilling.
Turn to the LORD and give it all to Him every day of your life.
Remember, He loves you, with a capacity in which we cannot comprehend.
His promises are unwavering, and He is with us no matter where we go, no matter where we live, no matter what we do.
He will always hold us up, in all things at all times.
So when someone asks, how are you doing?— instead of saying I’m well under the circumstances, garner your inner strength, then feel confident, by saying, I’m well over my circumstances.
Don’t ever forget this vitally important fact… there isn’t anything too big or too small for our God to handle and conquer.
With God all things are possible, Amen!
“Father God, may I always realize that You are with me and through You I am victorious, may I always turn to You for all things, and may my spiritual growth continue all the days of my life, in Jesus name, Amen.”
Isaiah 41:10
Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will uphold you with My right hand of righteousness. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
