Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him.By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
What does it mean to be an Overcomer? It means that I live by the tenets and precepts of the belief cycle. It means that I trust in the promises and provisions of the LORD, God, the Almighty. It means that I trust in the LORD with all my heart and lean not upon my own understanding. It means that the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. It means that if I acknowledge Him in all my ways, He will guide my every step.
IT MEANS TO LIVE A LIFE OF FAITH!
