Daily Success Key, Nov 13, 2005
THE REWARDS OF LIFE ARE DELIVERED ONLY UPON THE DOORSTEPS OF THOSE WHO OVERCOME.
John 10:10 (NKJV)
“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
Revelation 3:21 (NKJV)
“To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
John 10:10 (NKJV)
“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
Revelation 3:21 (NKJV)
“To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

Being a believer does not necessarily qualify us to receive the abundant life Jesus desires for us to achieve and enjoy. Diplomas are not passed out on registration day for your freshmen year in college. God calls for those who have truly put their trust in Him to reign as a king in this life. It is our God-given right and responsibility to reign over our flesh and defeat the enemy who comes against us.
But, why is it that there are so many Christians that are not walking in a life of abundant rewards? We must not kid ourselves when answering this question. We can clearly see in scripture that rewards come only to those who overcome. Nobody gets rewarded for participating. Reward comes to those who win the contest.
We are in a battle and Satan is not going to give up easily. He will, however, bow his knee and fall to defeat if we will continue to fight back with the spiritual weapons that we possess. As we fight back and conquer, we will soon experience the abundant and rewarding life God desires for us.
