take heart, i have overcome the world – jesus

In John 16:33, Jesus encourages us to hold our peace through our inevitable troubles. He gives us hope, because He has overcome the world. 

It sounds so simple doesn’t it? 

But it really is. Matthew 24:35 says that heaven and earth shall pass away, but the word of God will never pass away. 
This world as much as we dislike thinking about it, is not our home. Once we accept that this life is not the end, that Jesus has given us the gift of salvation and has overcome the world, we wouldn’t be moved by the troubles we see around us presently. 

In a world full of fear, we can choose to trust Gods word. God has called us to be a peculiar and holy nation.(Peter2:9) We are called to be different. When the whole world is in panic, we have the opportunity to share the good news with them. (Well, I can’t find a synonym for the word ‘good’ that can correctly express this news.) 
JESUS OF NAZARETH HAS OVERCOME THE WORLD! 

We don’t have to fear our future. All we have to do is accept Jesus into our hearts and let Him take control of our lives. We can rest assured that our eternities are safe and secured. 

Don’t forget to spread the good news. People need hope, and Jesus is the only one that can present us with hope and peace that surpasses all understanding. ☀️
