I welcome you to the 3rd month of 2020 the month of march. By the grace of God you shall have a victory march this month. Receive overcoming grace this month of March. overcomer shall be your name this month of March. By the grace of God you shall overcome the terror, even of the fear of the spread of virus. This month all you need to do is to refresh your mind and rely on scriptures. Refresh your mind on what God has said in the mist of the circumstances producing fears all around you and all around your environment.
I want to draw your attention to 1 John 5:4-5, “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world even our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the son of God.”
The basic qualification is “Whatever is born of God.” Are you born of God? Have you been born again? Are you a child of God? If you are not yet, you better do so at this moment. Pause, accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Confess your sins to Him. He will forgive you. He will come into your heart and give you the power to become a child of God. So that you will join the team that overcome the world. If you are a child of God, the grace is there is to overcome the world. He who overcomes the world is he who believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
1 John 4:4 says “You are of God little children and have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. This month, the a qualification is being born again or being born of God, then your name becomes an overcomer. This month you shall overcome: Depression, Fear, Temptation,
Procrastination, Enemies of faith, Challenges, Pains, Sorrows, Pride, Sickness Storms of life, Hardship etc.
I don’t know what is ahead of you, I don’t know what the devil is planning to bring this month of March, be assured that God already made you an overcomer. You are matching, treading upon scorpions and serpents. You are matching triumphantly over everything the devil will bring on your way this particular month.
Psalms 91:1-13 says
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.”
This is the precious promises of God, and so move into the month of March with confidence and assurance. Dear overcomer, march into March because victory is yours. You shall round up this month with multiple testimonies. We love you and we are praying for you. May you receive overcoming grace. Your circumstance shall not swallow you.
I am your brother
