Be of Good Cheer

 In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world – John 16:33.

 In the world you will have tribulation

         The world is temporary and the tribulations we have in this world is also temporary. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal - 2 Corinthians 4:17,18. 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 - Romans 8:18.

Be of good cheer

                Let us be of good cheer without any fear as the Lord who had overcome the world is with us. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid" – Matthew 14:26,27. Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me - John 14:1.

I have overcome the world

                The Lord had triumphed over all the powers of enemy and won the victory for us. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne - Revelation 3:21. He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world - 1 John 4:4.

                                              

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Let us be of good cheer in the world of tribulations as You have overcome the world. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
