Christ brings His people victory over the challenges of this life. “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
– John 16:33 |
We may now serve God confidently in the power of the Spirit of the one who fulfills the law, without fear of the penalty of the law. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” – 1 Peter 1:3-5 |
What battles are you fighting today? Did Jesus have battles to fight? Where do you look for strength? How do you keep your focus on Jesus who is the only one who can bring about victory for you? What counts as victory? Is the rest you seek the same as that of those who don’t know God? How do you know when you have the rest that God intends for you?
