We cannot forget for a moment that the world in which we live is adamantly and irrevocably hostile to our Christian faith. The world around us is filled with temptations, pressures, opposing views, and opposition that are determined to derail God’s purposes for our lives. Nevertheless, God has granted us the ability to overcome any adversity through one thing–our faith.
Faith recognizes that we, in our own power, are helpless. Yet faith also clings to the One Person who is victorious every time. It is not our faith that has any efficacy. Rather, the power lies solely in the One in whom we place our trust. The world may mock our beliefs. It may question our viewpoint. It might challenge our assumptions. But it cannot stop us from believing. Faith is our prerogative. It might not make sense to those around us, but it remains our lifeline. Regardless of what you are facing today, your faith can bring you victory.
