• When worlds collide – brute force is not always the victor
• When Kingdoms clash, the fittest does not always survive
• We wrestle not against flesh and blood
• The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, flesh and blood, but are mighty
through God to the pulling down of strongholds
• Imaginations are cast out, thoughts are arrested & taken captive
Paul wrote This Tractate (Treatise) to Rome – an amazing matrix of Jewish and Gentile
Christians – Don’t let the evil you encounter drag you down – overwhelm you – You
OVERCOME IT!!!!
The Greek word for Overcome – NIKE: to prevail over an opponent, to be victorious, to conquer
You are either the victim or the victor – either overcome or are overwhelmed.
• Overcome with Praise
• Overshadow any enemy – Greater is he that is in me
• Overflow with the presence of God – David “My cup overflows” beyond the brim
• Overrule your flesh
Do not overstate your troubles
Do not over-react to life’s problems
Do not go overboard with the devils lies
Your words - can paint things black or white – Situate it to catch the Light
You can blast --- or bless
LOOK at your struggle --- paint it white & let it go
• If God is for us – who can be against us
• Who shall separate me????? From the Love of God?????
• You can forgive because you have been forgiven
How do you paint things white? The words of your mouth and the meditations of
your heart!!!!
