Overcomers are followers of Christ who successfully resist the power and temptation of the world’s system. Whew! And how do we do that? An overcomer is not sinless – but holds fast to faith in Christ until the end. She does not turn away when times get difficult. Overcoming requires complete dependence upon God for direction, fulfillment, and strength to follow His plan for our lives. Read more here.

Matthew 13:43
The pumpkins, squash, and apples of Autumn mark the last great harvest of the growing season. The once full fields now lay bare having given up their bounty. Soon Jesus will send out His mighty angels to reap from the earth the bounty of His church. And those He gleans from the fields, will forever shine like the sun in the kingdom of the Father. I pray that until that time, I will continue to sow the seeds of the Gospel and growing in His loving light.

Philippians 2:15
The minute we profess to be a follower of Christ, people start watching. They watch to see if our words line up with our actions. They watch to see if our hearts have changed. And they watch to see if we have something they want for themselves. As ambassadors for Jesus, we need to remember that the world is watching. And we need to be loving, beacons of light, “in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation.” The days are growing shorter, so now more than ever, shine brightly for the Lord!

John 9:5
I read a news story the other day about a blind man who, after receiving experimental, surgery was able to see again. Besides his great joy at seeing his wife and children for the first time, the freedom he gained through the return of his sight brought him to tears. That’s how it with Jesus. Once we were spiritually blind, living in darkness. But the Light came to the world, healed us from our blindness, and gave us freedom from the penalty of sin. And just like the blind man who is excited for the future, we too can be excited about a future spent with Jesus!

2 Corinthians 4:6
The Word Of God is precious. And the fact that we can pick up a Bible at any time and read is indeed a blessing. The ancient Israelites were only able to know God’s will through Moses, and sadly even today, some people will never have the privilege of having a Bible to read. The Good Book is illuminated with the knowledge of both Jesus Christ, and the glory of the Father. And our great Creator, the Maker Of the sun, moon, and stars, wants to illuminate us as well! Won’t you spend time in the Bible today and let God light up your heart?

Isaiah 58:8
Recently a dear friend shared how she, along with others were fasting and praying for our country. Isaiah taught the people of Israel, who were also fasting for their country, that fasting and prayers needs to go hand in hand with humility and repentance. Once His people walk in obedience and love, God says He will shine His Light upon them, heal their sorrows, and surround them with His righteousness and glory! Won’t you join in prayer for both the leaders of our country and the healing of our land?
