Shalom,

We read John 16 today in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan. Jesus is speaking to His disciples and He ends with this in verse 33:

33 I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]

Yes, there are evil things going on in this world, but OUR promise from JESUS is that they CANNOT hurt us and we CAN rise above anything and everything that the enemy throws our way because JESUS has ALREADY overcome him, conquered him, destroyed his power over us and it is enforced when WE trust HIM and HIS WORD! Let's get busy BEING the OVERCOMERS! People are watching so let's show them HOW we OVERCOME! Here is Hillsong with "That's The Power":

Shalom in Him!
