Overcomers

Overcomers

To him who overcomes and does my will to the end,
I will give authority over the nations.
Revelation 2:26


Revelation contains seven letters to seven churches. All seven letters contain a promise to those who overcome. What does this mean for us? How do we overcome?

Overcomers are not just Christians, but Christians who live for Jesus Christ and not for themselves. We become Christians by believing in Jesus and receiving the gift of eternal life.

But so many Christians live largely for themselves and give lip-service to Christ. They are not overcomers. They will spend eternity in heaven, but they will miss out on the rich rewards of the kingdom, including the reward of Revelation 2:26 to help rule the nations in eternity.

Overcomers are not just Christians, but Christians who are fully devoted to Christ, fully surrendered to Christ, fully committed to Christ. They are passionate worshipers who love God and seek God and obey God.

These are the overcomers. They are not perfect, but they are sold out to Jesus Christ. They want to please him with all their hearts.

Does Jesus Christ consider you an overcomer? Are you surrendered to Christ’s Lordship in your life?

You will not regret it. For all eternity, for unending billions of years, you will not regret it.

Give him your whole life.
