[W] [PREACHING LESSON 20:] IN CHRIST WE CAN HAVE VICTORY

 

IN CHRIST WE CAN HAVE VICTORY

 

(1 Corinthians 15:57) [57]But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

(1 John 5:4-5) [4]For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

[5]Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

(1 John 4:4) Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

* God is greater that lives in our lives than our enemy the Devil that is in the World.

* FIVE GREAT PROMISES OF GOD TO CLAIM BY THE CHRISTIANS.

1. THIS IS THE PROMISE FOR ALL BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN.

(1John 5:4-5) [4]For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

[5]Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

a. This is the great promise of God for the born again Christian.

b. The faith of the born again Christians overcometh the World, God said.

(I John 5:4) " For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world:  and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith."

2. THIS IS THE PROMISE TO THE RIGHTEOUS CHRISTIAN

(Psalms 1:6) For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

a. Victory over the way and counsel of the ungodly.

(Psalms 1:1) Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

3. THIS IS THE PROMISE OF GOD TO THE HUMBLE AND SUBMISSIVE CHRISTIAN.

(James 4:6-8) [6]But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

[7]Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

[8]Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

[9]Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

[10]Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

4. THIS IS THE PROMISE OF GOD TO SUPPORTIVE CHRISTIAN TO THE MISSION WORK.

(Philippians 4:15-19) [15]Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

[16]For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

[17]Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

[18]But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

[19]But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

5. THIS IS THE PROMISE OF GOD TO FRUITFUL SOULWINNERS CHRISTIANS .

(John 15:8,15-16) [8]Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

[13]Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

[14]Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

[15]Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

[16]Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

a. Christ treat the soulwinners a great respect and called us not servants but His friends and co-laborer in His vineyard. Big Amen and Amen!

* God bless you all always *
