Scriptures to Meditate on today ! Overcomers are followers of Christ who successfully resist the power and temptation of the world’s system. An overcomer is not sinless, but holds fast to faith in Christ until the end. For it is written in Matthew 5:3 Jesus says, "Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Christ taught of a godly righteousness that depended on an inner purity of heart and humility of spirit within us.  For it is written in Matthew 5:20, the key verse in the Sermon on the Mount, says, "Except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven." The scribes and Pharisees went to the Temple regularly, paid tithes, fasted, and prayed constantly. But Christ wasn't impressed with their religious performance. We have to be in a relationship with God daily,not just on Sunday's. It's very important to keep God's Word in your heart. We have to encourage ourselves and speak over ourselves. The New Testament clearly teaches us that we are in a conflict, indeed it's a holy war, with specific adversaries. Even after salvation, the conflict still rages in and against the life of the believers daily. Children of the most high get dressed daily with your armor. For it is written in Ephesians 6:11-12,Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Now, understand that Jesus has made a way for us to overcome that spirit of darkness by His Word.
