I Have Overcome the World!

-->

Jan. 19, 2015 Monday Message:

Bad news won’t bother (believers;) they have decided to trust the Lord. Ps. 112:7 CEV

Jesus said that some tribulation, some trouble, will fall into our lives. That is the way of our fallen world. So knowing that a few things will go wrong, how should we react?

We are armed with certain truths:

1. God is still on the throne, and he will use even the bad things for good, to strengthen us, to make us better.

2. Jesus came to redeem us, completed the task, and left us with his legacy of grace, love and forgiveness.

All things considered, when we’re a part of God’s family, we’re in a pretty good place.

Worry won’t fix anything; it will only add to our anxiety. And with the faith we profess in Jesus, we need to trust Him with everything. Jesus tells us to “Take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33b NIV

Blessings - see you at church!

Jesus in the City Fellowship (JICF) gathers at 10 a.m. every Sunday in North end (gym) of the Oliver Ministry Building, 2647 Bloomington Ave., Minneapolis. This Sunday we’ll open up Acts 14, Paul and Barnabas continue their mission trip. See you there!

Special note: On Feb. 1, we’ll be combining our worship service with Victory Christian Church, 3500 E. Lake Street, Minneapolis, 55406. So our service will be in their building that week. It’ll be a great day – we always go “all out” when worshiping with our Christian brothers and sisters. Mark your calendars!
