OUR ULTIMATE VICTORY

OUR ULTIMATE VICTORY

In this life, sometimes it ‘looks like’ we are losing, or it appears that we have lost.  Fact is, nothing could be farther from the truth.  Appearances notwithstanding, right now “we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.” (Romans 8:37)  But in the morning, our ultimate victory shall be manifested.  “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” (Psalm 30:5)

Sisters and brothers, be encouraged and stand (by faith) on the promises of God’s Word.

I Corinthians 15:51-58 (NKJV)
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
55 “O Death, where is your sting?
O Hades, where is your victory?”
56 The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Never EVER give up!  It will be worth it all – when we see Jesus!

Romans 8:8,31,35-39
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written:
“For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

NOTHING SHALL SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD!

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
