CONQUER JERICHO

I John 5:4, 5

For whatsoever is born of GOD overcometh the world, and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that JESUS is the Son of GOD?

 

Next week we will discuss the "way to victory". When we are faced with the Jericho type trouble, that which is bigger, stronger and tougher than we are, then we must raise up the standard of Faith, given to us by GOD and believe that JESUS, the Son of GOD, has more strength, and is bigger than any problem that we could ever face.  JESUS defeated death and the grave; He defeated sickness and disease; He defeated sin and addiction, therefore, we are more than conquerors through JESUS Christ who gives us the victory.

There is an old hymn with these words, "Faith is the victory, faith is the victory; O glorious victory that overcomes the world." When we follow JESUS, we are walking in the path of victory and the walls of the Jericho type situations, come tumbling down so that we can have the victory and the spoil.

WHO IS HE THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD.
