Shalom! Welcome to episode 29 of Overcoming Daily with Anna Johnson.
Today's overcomer tidbit is this: the overcomer overcomes and teaches others to do the same. Overcoming is so vital to others. See, when we overcome, we are actually encouraging others to overcome. We have a responsibility to overcome for God's glory. And not only are we supposed to overcome to encourage others to wrestle to overcome, we're also supposed to help others on their overcomer journey by sharing a word with them that we've learned during our journey.
One of my favorite scriptures is John 16:33. And it states...
"These I've spoken to you, that in me you might have peace. In the world, you have pressure. But take courage, I have overcome the world."
This scripture is so encouraging to me because it reminds me of who I am a follower of. I am a follower of an overcomer. Matter of fact, I am a follower of the greatest overcomer that ever walked the earth, who still lives in heaven. See, we are to be followers of Messiah who is an overcomer. The greatest overcomer. And we see throughout scripture where he is actually teaching his disciples how to overcome in and through him. And not only does he show his disciples how to overcome in and through him, but he also tells them that he must ascend to the Father so that he can send the advocate - the helper, the Holy Spirit that empowers us to work mightily for God's glory.
