Overcome

At Friendship Church, we often sing a song called “Overcome”, written and recorded by New Life Worship’s Desperation Band out of Colorado. This song speaks such truth about how life is not always peachy, but because of Jesus Christ has overcome, we also HAVE overcome.

In the midst of a hard day, week, month, or even year, we can rest in the fact that Jesus has already overcome. He has overcome death and sin; we are now alive in Him. This Christian life is not immune to trouble. In fact, Jesus Christ said it Himself,

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” [John 16:33]

There will be trouble. Period. But the promise we can all rest in today is that the trouble is overcome. He has overcome. We will overcome.

Your response is everything.
