Remember you’re on the winning side!

1 John 5:4 For whatsoever is born of Elohim overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
As we are entering some of the most turbulent times in history, we’ve been receiving an unbelievable amount of email expressing concern about the future. But I want to tell you a little something – the future is VICTORY!
It’s not defeat, or loss. If you think about it, all the great leaders of the Bible shone in the hardest of times. When the giant Goliath stood against the army of Israel, David didn’t sit around with his brothers complaining about how big Goliath was. Though David was a dwarf next to this evil giant, he was still convinced he was going to be victorious because Yahweh was on his side!
When the apostles saw Yah'shua die, they must have felt utterly defeated – then, suddenly, there He was, out from the grave, gloriously alive before them – and from then on they walked in His victory! They didn’t sit around complaining about Roman persecution, the Sanhedrin, or the Pharisees. They didn’t get wrapped up in how evil the world was becoming; instead they pressed forward in the worst of times and in those dark days they shone like the stars in the midnight sky.
Despite everything that's happening around us, let’s be sure we’re not developing a defeatist attitude. We are called children of the King, a royal priesthood and a holy nation. Despite how bad things may be getting – don’t forget we’re on the winning team! We can stand against this evil and overcome it... with good!
