1 John 4:4
Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them because greater
is He that in you than he that is in the world.
Our scripture text speaks to the greatness of God over the rulers of this
world. What this means is that God the Holy Spirit lives in every believers and
through His indwelling Spirit believers can and will overcome the evils of this
world.
Let's be reminded that God is the creator of everything both seen and
unseen, which includes Satan. God will never be defeated by Satan and the evils
of this world. That said, there is nothing that God cannot do as there is no
failure in Him; therefore, with His Spirit living inside we are more than
conquerors. This is because Christ soundly defeated all at the cross. Therefore,
fear not; stand bold and strong in the Lord because greater is He that is in
you than he that is in this world (1John4:4). Satan and all evilness will soon
come to naught.
Armed with the indwelling Holy Spirit and God's body armor believers can
face the world in confidence as we stand firm on the truth of God's Word while
witnessing Christ in Satan's strongholds.
God's greatness is demonstrated in His provisional care providing for all
our needs whether physical or spiritual. Man needed a Savor; Christ came
suffered bled and died for our sins and rose for our justifications giving all
who believe eternal life.
There is no greater god than the God of this universe.
