The Overcomers Resolve


There are ALWAYS excuses, small and great, good ones and really good ones, but until you resolve to be an overcomer you will continue to be overcome.

Circumstance is circumstance no matter how you look at it. There are massive circumstances where seemingly everything and everyone is caving in on you at once, and there are circumstances where you're short a few bucks for lunch, or you lost your keys or something. No matter that the situation or circumstance we must realize that we are:
1) Fully equipped to weather anything with JOY and a glad and faithful countenance (I John 4:4, Gal. 5:22-25, Acts 16:22-26).
2) We are mandated by the Lord Jesus, as a blood bought child of God, to live as such (John 14:21, II Cor. 13:5, I Cor. 6:20).

As a great man of God once said, "There is only the divine ways of God. The rest is a developing mess!" Let us resolve today to never again be overcome by circumstance and realize that the 'greater is He that is in me' factor has enabled me to have a joyful and faith filled countenance in the worst of situations.

Father, teach me to look to you for the solution instead of looking to the circumstance for the reason why I can't!

Philippians 4:13, I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ Jesus who is my source of strength!
