God S Plan And The Overcomers

Does God have a plan? What is it? Are we involved in it? Watchman Nee lays before us the eternal plan of God, which is, to sum up all things in Christ that Christ might have the preeminence.

Because God is light, many Spirit-filled Christians overlook the fact that believers go through times of dark spiritual battle. Yet throughout the Bible and church history, we see God bringing his light into the darkest places in order to transform them. Pastor Barbara Yoder wants believers to know that God still breaks through today, often in the darkest and seemingly most hopeless times. Through careful study of Scripture and from the cutting edge of her own experience, Yoder shows readers God's faithfulness during the darkest spiritual hours. Offering hope and purpose, Yoder Shows believers how God uses those dark times of the soul to forge something new--something only darkness can shape and only God's light can expose. Readers will come away encouraged to see how often God waits until the final moments to bring forth victory for those obedient to His will.

Are you ready to live fully prepared and fully equipped to handle anything life throws at you? As Christians, we can be courageous and confident, knowing that God has placed us in human history for His purposes, and He will empower us regardless of our circumstances. Drawing on the book of Revelation and historical examples, The Overcomers will put steel in the spines of believers and remind them of the fierce, conquering, commanding authority of God over all the earth. You were made for this exact moment in human history. Things may look gloomy, and you may feel discouraged, but because of the promise and hope found in Scripture, you can be brave, confident, and victorious today! In The Overcomers, Matt Chandler reminds readers that they don't have to be anxious or afraid of anything in the present or in the future because both have already been won. We are not victims but overcomers—and we are a key part of what God is working out in our day. God is at work in the mess, just as He has always been, and He continues to accomplish His purpose of seeking and saving the lost. In this book, believers will: Find courage and confidence from fellow believers who have gone before us. Feel empowered as God reminds them of His promises fulfilled and yet to come. Understand the strategies, tactics, and deceptions Satan uses to try to keep us paralyzed with anxiety and fear. Learn to live a victorious Christian life marked by the power and presence of God. The apostle John wrote his letter to a certain group of people in a particular place at a specific time. Although it was written to them, it was also written for us. The Overcomers takes a chapter-by-chapter view of Revelation rather than a line-by-line deep dive, helping readers practically understand what God wants to say to us today through this extraordinary book written thousands of years ago. Believers will be reminded that they are uniquely wired and uniquely placed in this moment in history as part of God's big plan to push back darkness and to establish light. Christ has overcome, and in Him we, too, are the overcomers!

Every day and everywhere, everyone can live a powerful life of Kingdom impact ... Jesus-style! One ordinary life making a powerful difference—that's God's amazing "Plan A" on display. Using real-life, riveting stories and a contemporary scriptural lens, Dwight Robertson shows how God's exciting kingdom-building plan takes life—literally—in ordinary individuals. Robertson explains how God calls and equips average, everyday people—even those who don't think they have anything special to contribute—to creative ministries that are as distinct and unique as the individual. God's Plan A encourages average Christians everywhere to follow the model of Jesus: ministering up close, one life at a time, outside church walls in our everyday lives. God's Plan A involves all of us ... and there is no Plan B.

Can anything good come out of conflict? Whether we like it or not, conflict is an important part of our lives. Jesus plainly told us we would have tribulation but also encouraged us to take heart because He has overcome the world (John 16:33). The world offers many solutions to conflicts, and too often, we borrow its methods. Unsurprisingly, we obtain similar results with divorce rates, infighting, power struggles, broken relationships, and church disunity. In this book, we explore God’s purpose in allowing conflict and how to handle it according to His plan. Jesus is building His church, and as we cooperate with Him, we will reap the eternal rewards of overcoming through conflict. He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. (Revelation 3:21)

Most people will never have the opportunity to be rich, famous, or powerful during their life in the current world system. But, no matter what your situation, or where you live on the earth, you CAN be great in the world that's soon to come. Unlike the current world system, this opportunity is totally up to you and within your power. Jesus Christ, the 'illegitimate' son of a poor Jewish couple, died in obscurity--from this world's perspective. But today millions of people from every ethnic tribe and language are His disciples. Why? Almost 2000 years after His death, the Messiah has millions of disciples today because He changed the heavenly realm. The result was:* the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to fulfill the feast of Pentecost* the fulfillment of God's promise to write His law in man's heart (Jeremiah 31:33)* The good news of reconciliation to God went out to all nations* Christ is now seated at God's right hand, waiting for us to make His enemies His footstool. (Hebrews 10:13)* The subjection of the principalities and powers to His Lordship in heavenMost people adopt this world's concept of greatness; that is, great people are rich, famous, and powerful. But God has a contrary definition of greatness, as Jesus exemplified. Everyone who chooses to can be great in God's eyes, by helping Him complete the change in the heavenly realm, bringing the Messiah's Lordship and the Kingdom of God over the nations of the earth for the next 1000 years.Other end-time books discuss the what and when of end-time events; this book covers the why and how. Also, other end-time books focus on earthly entities and events, such as: * the Antichrist, his false prophet, and their Beast Kingdom* the sequence and timing of end-time events among the nations* the battle of Armageddon* the rapture* the great tribulation * and, the fulfillment of Daniels's 70th week.But, this book reveals (from the Biblical perspective) the spiritual/celestial realities that are the cause or effect of these earthly events. Events in the spiritual (or heavenly) realm are the direct cause or effect of events on the earth. * Earth to heaven: For example, the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ on earth resulted in Him becoming the High Priest in the heavenly temple; offering His blood on the heavenly altar, and now being seated at the right hand of God in His glorified body.* Heaven to earth: In the opposite direction, an example of a spiritual event causing an earthly result is the decision in the court of heaven that resulted in Job being severely tested on the earth.Similarly, end-time events on earth are physical, earthly consequences or causes of events that occur in the spiritual realm. Therefore, unless you understand:* There is an ongoing battle in heaven; * Who is fighting the war in heaven?* The origin of the conflict between God and His adversaries;* The respective goals of God and His adversaries;* How is mankind involved in the war in heaven?* And how the overcomers enable God to defeat His adversaries;you cannot knowingly cooperate in God's plan to defeat His adversaries in the ongoing war in heaven.In this book you'll learn: * The 5 eons in God's eternal plan of redemption* The overcomers' role in God's ultimate victory in the war in heaven* 7 facts about God's adversaries* How the 144,000 overcomers cause the Dragon and his angels to be cast down from heaven to earth.* Why the 144,000 are called "firstfruits unto God and the Lamb"* The myth of Lucifer; and Satan isn't who you think he is* Who or what is our adversary--Satan? How to defeat him in your life.* The root of the conflict--the archons' legal charge against God* 4 facts about the archons--the elohim, principalities and powers, or 'gods' * God set 70 archons over 70 nations of mankind* 5 facts about human archons* Biblical components of a human being* Babylon's system of deception over mankind
