Topic: YOU’RE ABOVE ALL
THEME SCRIPTURE:
1 John 4:4 (KJV)
Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
MESSAGE:
It’s important we live and walk in the consciousness of who we are and where we hail from. We’re in this world, but we’re not of this world. We hail from heaven.
The phrase, “Ye are of God” in our theme Scripture means, “You hail from God!” That means, your origin is in God; your root is in God. You were born of God; you proceeded from God. Do you know what that implies? It implies you’re in the God-class and therefore, not subject to the things that overcome others in this world. That’s why our theme Scripture further stated, that, “...and have overcome them.” What did the Scripture mean by, “them”? The next line in our theme Scripture throws more light; it says, “...because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” Meaning, the word, “them” refers to whatever that is in the world that overcomes others. Whatever overcomes people in this world does not have the upper hand over you, because you hail from God. You were born from above, and John 3:31 (KJV) says, “He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.”
You’re above all! Do you believe that?
