For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

As we have received Jesus into our heart and let Him be Lord of our life, we have become victorious, we have become overcomers, just by receiving Him as our Lord and Savior.

With so many deceptions in the world, how do we know the way or the truth?

John 14:5-7 KJV

5  Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

No Man: not even one (man, woman or thing) that is none, not (any, at all)

7  If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

How does a person know the Father? Through Jesus.

• Romans 10:9 AMPBecause if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

10  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11  For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12  For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

Receiving Jesus into our heart, brings us back to the place to where we were supposed to be in the beginning of time of the perfect image of God by the spirit.

Genesis 1:26 KJV

26  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

We are God’s own

God has predestined (planned beforehand) for us to take the path He has already planned ahead of time and as we are obedient to Him, He will guide us into living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live.
