An Overcomer


Because of our faith in Christ Jesus, we have now gained our redemption and we are reconciled again with God. We have also gained access of God’s grace because of this faith we have. And because we already have access of God’s grace, we can now live our lives without any worries and become great overcomers. We can be happy in whatever we do! Even if we fall sometimes, because of God’s grace, we can still find the strength to rise.

“Not only so, but we also rejoice in our suffering, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.”
-Romans 5:3-4, NIV

We don’t need to live a life of defeat again. Our faith in Christ will make us overcome every hardship that would come into our lives. We can now face any challenge with confidence because we know that we have God’s grace with us. The faith we put in Him will make us stand strong even when facing the heaviest storm.

“And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.”
-Romans 5:6, NIV

Our faith in Christ will help us build on our character when it comes into facing life here on earth. It gives us hope, that even in the most impossible situation, we can still find our way out. God also did not give the Holy Spirit to us for nothing. It serves as our guide as we live here on earth. It gives us wisdom, in which we need to use in every situation we would face, either easy or hard. It is the wisdom that comes from the Holy Spirit helps us build our Christ-like character.

“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we are still sinners, Christ died for us.”
-Romans 5:8, NIV

Being an overcomer is up for grabs for anyone. Christ has already died for everyone, so that anyone who believes in Him would experience the grace of God that would make us overcome. Gaining this is easy, just receive and have faith in Christ Jesus.
