For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.
Dear Ones: This is the Victory! When we received Christ as our Savior and Lord, then we were re-born of God. John tells us in this verse that the re-born ones are victorious over the world. “What is the world?” you may ask. It is the fallen and corrupt world system that is anti-God and anti-Christ. This system is set up to steal, kill, and destroy whatever stands in its way.
But the saints of God are re-born to be victors and not victims. Our faith in His plan of salvation and power to deliver us is how we grasp victory. “Is this easy?” you may ask. No, but we fight the good fight of faith from His place of victory. Romans 8:37 (NLT) confirms to us, “No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.”
This is the Victory through Christ that gives us an abundant life. It is worth the fight to receive our full inheritance won for us through the Cross. In fact, we do not enter the battlefield alone. When we put on the armor of light, the dark ones are confronted by the victory of the Cross. It is by faith we cloth ourselves in light and enforce His victory.
May your soul rejoice at the words, this is the victory that I walk in today. Take the verse from First John and make your own declaration of this truth. Every day your faith is growing stronger. Remember, in Him you are victorious over all the things that contend with you today. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
