God speaks of overcoming the world in the past tense.
The world was never an enemy to be conquered by us. It is a battleground to be filled and loved. The world is occupied territory because we, its conquerors through Christ, occupy it.
When Jericho was rebuilt, it was occupied again. In Jesus’ day, it was inhabited by a man named Zacchaeus who, overcome by the love of Jesus, learned to overcome the world by worshiping God with all he had.
When we worship God amidst the world, we are proclaiming love and order in the middle of fear and chaos. When we love others the same way Christ loved us, we are declaring victory over hatred. We do all this by faith in Jesus. That is our victory.
God is a victorious warrior. Only the victorious freely worship and find rest in Him.
Challenge:
- Memorize John 16:33
- Worship God like a victorious warrior, because if you are in Christ - you are.
This is Week 5 of a ten-week challenge. Week 6 can be found here: www.morethanwarriors.com
دەربارەی ئەم پلانە
We have three enemies, the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. In the book of Joshua, Jericho represents the world. God trained Israel in the wilderness, baptized them in the Jordan, and circumcised them as they camped before the locked gates of Jericho. How would they overcome Jericho? How do we overcome the world? This in-depth stand-alone plan is also part 5 of a 10-part series.
