THE LIVING GOD #VICTORY

from Barbara's Bible

Are you a #winner?  Do you like to be on the winning side?  I know I do!  Tommy used to say, “If there is a contest on TV – even battlebots -my wife will watch it.”  That is true as I like to see the overcomer.   Victory is sweet..   Today, victories take a back seat to all the tragedies constantly bombarding our airways as the headlines seem to dwell on losers..murder…tragedy…drugs…depression.  Newsflash…..You can be victorious.  Yes-You can have victory even in this downcast world in which we live.  How ?  Let me share God’s Word.  1Corth.15:53-57 “When corruptible shall put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.  O death, where is thy sting: O grave, where is thy victory:  The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. but thanks be to God, who gives us the VICTORY through our LORD JESUS CHRIST.  At the age of four, my favorite book was ‘The Little Engine That Could’; however,  as I matured God enlightened me to the fact that He was my internal power source and there is no victory without Jesus Christ.  1John5:4,5 “Whosoever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the VICTORY that overcomes the world, even our faith.  Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God.”
