Be an Overcomer

"Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God."    

                                                                            1 John 5:5   NKJV

The Greek word (Gr. 3529) for Overcomer/Victory is the word Nike (Nee-Kay). One can see why the world-wide sports company took the name 'NIKE.' They wanted their products to be winners for winners, although, I have never heard anyone pronounce Nike as Nee-Kay.

Overcoming means to win the conquest - the means of success. We need to learn to become a Nike person.

Do you realise that God, is the one who signed your acquittal papers? He did this in His blood. Therefore, the enemy - Satan, can no longer have dominion over you. When you are walking as an overcomer in the victory that Jesus gave you, your presence sends terror messages into the camp of the enemy. You are an overcomer! You are victorious and you are a winner. Losers talk - Winners take action. In Jesus, you meet the ability to win the:

(1)   CONQUEST  The act or process of conquering something, especially territory.

(2)   VICTORY.      Final and complete defeat of the enemy in a military engagement. Any successful struggle against an opponent or obstacle. The state of having triumphed.

(3)   TRIUMPH.     To be victorious or successful, win or prevail. To rejoice over a success or victory; exult, as trophies of Christ's victory. 

                     (An accumulation of my studies in this area and some data from The Amplified Bible)  

Are you an overcomer? Are you a conqueror?  Are you a winner? Yes, in Jesus you are. Just look at what Romans 8:37 says:'Yet in all these things, we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.' A conqueror is one who overcomes by gaining control. But you are not really a conqueror - no you're not. You are more than a conqueror. There is a big difference here. This is how God has made you and, in Jesus it is put into action. But you must make some changes yourself. It doesn't just happen. You have to live the life and this is why you need to continue to read this, Daily Life with Jesus because, it will steer you in the right direction. Tell others about it. You are a winner! Never ever say, 'I can't,' because you can!'

If you are not born again and want to be, here I’ll below is a prayer of salvation:

'Lord Jesus, I have sinned and I ask you to forgive me and be my Lord and Saviour. Please come into my heart, fill me with Your Spirit and give me a brand new start today.

In Jesus' Name. Amen'
