The Overcomer
"To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in midst of the Paradise of God."
~ Revelations 2:7
"No man may turn his back in the day of battle. We must fight if we would reign, and we must carry on the warfare till we overcome every enemy. We are to overcome the false prophets who have come into the world and the evils that accompany their teaching. We are to overcome our own faintness of heart and tendency to decline from our first love.
If by grace we win the day, as we shall if we follow our conquering Leader, then we shall be admitted to the very center of the paradise of God, and shall be permitted to pass by the cherub and his flaming sword, and come to that guarded tree, whereof of a man eat, he shall live forever. Pluck up courage! To flee the conflict will be to lose the joys of the new, better Eden; to fight unto victory is to walk with God in paradise." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

PLEASE PRAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME THIS MORNING. OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, AND OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN, AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US. AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM ALL EVIL:FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE HONOR, AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. IT IS IN CHRIST JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN!
