A Conquering Faith

"Our faith is the victory that has conquered the world. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God." 1 John 5:4-5

We encounter overwhelming situations everyday. What is it that will make the difference and allow us to rise above? A faith that can conquer. Not faith in the people surrounding us or in the things that we own. People just aren't dependable and possessions just clutter our lives. I'm talking about a faith that overcomes because it is grounded in The One who has already overcome this world and it's flaws. Faith in Jesus, the Son of God. 


Are you facing a situation today that requires you to rise above? Struggling to figure out how? Discover this man they call Jesus and put your faith in him. Take 5 minutes of your day and confess your struggle and surrender it to him. Believe that this Son of God can handle what you have given over to him for this day. 2 Timothy 1:12 says, "Yet I am not ashamed because I know whom I have believed and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day." Be convinced that He is able and trust. If that's all that you can do today, that is enough. He is enough. -jenna
