The Overcomer
This is what I shared during Wednesday (5/20) prayer night bible study.
We were not able to witness Adam and Eve, Moses, Jesus' birth and death. However, Revelation is the time period that we will most likely witness. We need to focus on a goal for this time period - to be the Overcomer.
Rewards for the Overcomer
" . . . to him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life…He that overcometh shall not be hurt by the second death (eternal death)…He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life…." (Revelation 2:7, 11, 26, Revelation 3:5)
How to be the Overcomer
"The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. (Colossians 1: 26-27)
It is not “Guaranteed Salvation”
"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him." (Romans 5:8-9).
God tells us in the Bible that He will not dwell with sin (Revelation 21:3, 7-8).
In Galatians 5:19-21 we are told that sinners will not enter the Kingdom of God.
Salvation is the gift of God (Romans 6:23
Conclusion
The ultimate goal is to be the Overcomer and sit at the right hand of God. Don’t let your strong holds on earh overcome you and not be the Overcomer. You are your worst enemy. Let Christ be in you-that is the only way we can win to be the Overcomer: who will eat the tree of life, not hurt by second death, be the bride, and our names will stay in the book of life.
