I will first start off saying that God has overcome the world. Not us. Not me. Not you. God has overcome the world. These verses came from our sermon today at church. We are reading through John to build up through Easter. This is one of our topics. I loved the church service today, and I will say that off the bat. In our sermon today Preacher Scott stated words that were so very true, and it touched my heart. Thanks Scott! It is not us that have changed the world or overcome the world, for God has overcome the world. This world is his. Not ours. We are his children.
"...In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart I have overcome the world." - John 16:33
The Lord Our God does marvelous things, and we should not put ourselves on the same level as him. We will never be at his level. Impossible. He is the Father and Creator. He loves us all unconditionally, and this is his world. My preacher also made the comment that he hates to see churches say they are overcoming the world in their church house. They cannot overcome the world, for God is the only one that can do that. It isn't our world to overcome; it is his.
Never forget who's world you're living in.
It's not ours.
It's his.
Live in his name, and glorify his name.
In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.
Amen.
