How Not to Be Defeated in the Apocalypse!
You Are More Than a Conqueror!
By

He who has an ear, let him hear what
the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give to eat from
the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God... He who
overcomes shall not be hurt by the second death... To him who overcomes I will
give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on
the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it...
And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power
over the nations—‘He shall rule
them with a rod of iron; They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s
vessels’—as
I also have received from My Father; and I will give him the morning star. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the churches. (Revelation
2:7,11,17,26-29 KJV)
Today,
the Bible, which is the Word of God and does not lie, asks you to pay close attention to what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church.
And what is He
saying? We win!
No matter
the problem, sickness,
or adverse circumstance you are facing today, the good news is that in
Christ Jesus, you have already won.
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to
come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other
creature, shall be able
to separate us from
the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans
8:37-39 KJV)
You
have been predestined and empowered
by the Word of God to overcome, for because Christ Jesus conquered
death in your place, you have conquered death with Him. And not only death, but
also sadness, sickness, bitterness, hatred, resentment, poverty,
and any need that tries
to steal the joy and peace
of knowing and believing that you are now a true and legitimate Child of God,
Born Again.
For the love of Christ
constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that
he died for all, that they which
live should not henceforth
live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. (2
Corinthians 5:14-15 KJV)
Just pay close attention, for it is not by your strength
or abilities that you have overcome and will overcome, it is by
your FAITH! It is by believing God, believing His Word!
Now faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence
of things not seen.
(Hebrews 11:1 KJV)
Only when you have the
absolute certainty that God does NOT
lie and that, therefore, you ARE exactly the person that God says in His Word,
the Bible, that you are, then you will have overcome
and will be able to live, walk, and
breathe as a Conqueror.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel,
because it is the
power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes:
first to the Jew, then to the
Gentile. For in the gospel the
righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to
last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” (Romans 1:16-17 NIV)
It is believing God, believing His
Word, that gives you access to the Power of God, for whatever problem,
sickness, or affliction you are facing today, the Good News of the Gospel is
revealed to you today, as you realize how God makes you righteous in His
eyes, which is accomplished from start to finish by your faith (by believing God, believing
His Word). As the Scriptures say: “It is through faith that the righteous have
life.”
But we all, with unveiled face,
beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are
being transformed into the same image from glory
to glory, just as by the Spirit of
the Lord. (2 Corinthians 3:18 NLT)
“To him who overcomes I will give...
and I will make him (her)...” says the Lord
in Revelation. But unless you see yourself
through the Bible and use the Word
of God as the mirror where you acquire
your True Identity, you will not be able to defeat, to receive what Christ
Jesus acquired for you.
It is the Bible that establishes that, despite your circumstances, you are to conquer in this world.
Whoever
believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him
who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him... For whatever is born of God
overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes
the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:1, 4-5 KJV)
1.
Do you believe that Jesus is the Christ? I know you do. Then you are Born of God. You are a Child of God, Born
Again!
2.
Every Child of God OVERCOMES
the world. Not just the holiest, or the
anointed, or those who pray or fast;
the scripture says EVERY Child of God. So, indeed, you and I overcome the
world. How?
3.
With our FAITH, for this is
the victory that overcomes the world, our FAITH. It is when you BELIEVE
God, believing His Word, that you truly begin to overcome.
4.
So: Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus
is the Son of God?
This is what the Bible
says, which is the Word of Honor
of God, who does not lie; therefore, you are more than a
conqueror through Him who loved you, Christ Jesus.
There is no way you can
lose!
Now you can understand that when Scripture says “To him who overcomes,” it is referring to you. It does not say you will overcome if
you try hard or pay the price or feel worthy. No! None of that! Who is it
referring to? To him who overcomes. And who is the one who overcomes? The one
who BELIEVES that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. Because to the one who
BELIEVES, ALL things are possible.
“How
long has this been happening to him?” Jesus asked the boy’s father. He replied,
“Since he was a little boy. The spirit often throws him into the fire or into water, trying
to kill him. Have mercy
on us and help us, if you can.” “What
do you mean, ‘If I
can’?” Jesus asked.
“Anything is possible
if a person believes.” The
father instantly cried out, “I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!” (Mark 9:21-24 NLT)
Say
this declaration out loud: I, <name>, believe that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God; therefore,
according to the Bible, which is the Word of God who
does not lie, I am a son/daughter of God, BORN AGAIN, and I overcome the world. I am more than
a conqueror through
Him who loved me, Christ Jesus!
Let us pray aloud:
Beloved
Heavenly Father, thank You so much because in Your Word, the Words that have come from Your mouth, You
have declared me Your child through faith in Christ Jesus. I, (your
name here), believe that Jesus is the
Lord, the Christ, my Savior. For this, I am eternally grateful to You, Lord
Jesus; because Your sacrifice was
complete, perfect, and finished. Nothing was
left undone. I have been justified by Your Blood and by Your Life I have
received Eternal Life, the full and abundant Life that only the Children of God
can enjoy. Thank You because Your Word, the Bible, gives me the ability to,
regarding my former way of life, put off the old man (woman), which is
corrupted by deceitful desires, and be renewed in the spirit of my mind, and
put on the new man (woman), created according to God in righteousness and true
holiness. I am that one who has already overcome, for I am what You, God, say
in Your Word that I am: Your beloved child. Therefore, I know that I know, and so I declare, that in every problem, sickness, or affliction, I will come out more than a conqueror through
Your Love, Christ Jesus. I can do all things! I reject every thought or feeling
of condemnation in my life! I am Born Again! I walk, live, think, and breathe
according to the Spirit! I am not conformed to my flesh! The law of the Spirit of
Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death! I am
determined, with Your help, Holy Spirit, to stand firm in the freedom with
which Christ has made me free and I will never again be subject to a yoke of
bondage! So, with this authority that You have given me, Father, I resist the
spirit of fear and doubt, I cast out of my life sickness, poverty, sadness, and
depression. I receive my health, prosperity, freedom, and joy. I am healed! I
am free! I am prosperous! I am blessed! And I have already overcome. In the
name of Jesus. Amen.
Important Note:
How do I become
a Child of God? How do I establish a relationship with the
Almighty?
Just say the following prayer out loud,
putting all your attention and heart into what you are saying to God:
Lord
Jesus, I believe that You are the Son of God. That You came to this world from the virgin Mary to pay for all my sins, and I have been a sinner.
Therefore, today I say to You that I accept. I accept Your sacrifice on
the cross! I accept Your precious Blood shed to the last drop out of love for
me! I open my heart and invite You to come in because I want, Lord Jesus, that
from today and forever You be my only and sufficient Savior, my God, my King,
and my Lord.
Thank You, Almighty God, because with this
simple prayer and profession of faith I have passed from death to Life, I have been transferred from darkness
to Your marvelous Light. Today I have been Born Again! God, now I am Your
child! Now You are my Father! I will never be alone again! I will never live
defeated again. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Three Recommendations:
What just happened by
you recognizing Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior of your life, according to God's Word, is that you have been Born Again. No longer
as an ordinary human being, subject to the law of sin and death, but now as a
legitimate and authentic Child of God, Born Again, exactly like Jesus Christ, who is now your Older Brother. Therefore,
I give you these three, very important, recommendations:
1. Pray. Praying is
talking with God. So, find a quiet place where you can begin talking
to Him about everything. Do it out loud, and you will notice
how God always responds to your heart.
2. Read and meditate
on the Word of God. The Bible is the Word of God, so get a Bible
and start reading
and meditating on it. How do you begin? It’s very simple. Depending on the day,
look up the reading program “The Bible in
One Year” and do the corresponding readings. You can get this program at: Through The Bible In One Year
(palabradehonor.org). You will notice that the program is set up so you can
print it as a booklet.
3. In prayer with God,
your Father, look for and join a Christian church or congregation where
the Word of God is taught based on the Good News, which are the Gospel of Jesus
Christ.

October 2 Revelation 2 / Nehemiah
3 / Psalm 97
Revelation
2
Unto the angel of the church
of Ephesus write;
These things saith he that holdeth
the seven stars in his right hand,
who walketh in the midst of the
seven golden candlesticks;
2 I know thy works,
and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear
them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are
not, and hast found them liars:
3
And hast borne,
and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
5
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and
repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will remove
thy candlestick out of
his place, except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
7
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I
give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
8
And unto the angel of the church
in Smyrna write; These things
saith the first
and the last, which was dead, and is alive;
9
I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I
know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews,
and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10
Fear none of those
things which thou shalt suffer:
behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison,
that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days:
be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
11
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
He that overcometh shall not
be hurt of the second death.
12
And to the angel of the church
in Pergamos write;
These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two
edges;
13
I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's
seat is: and thou
holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my
faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
14
But I have
a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught
Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children
of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit
fornication.
15
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine
of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I
hate.
16
Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
17
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the
hidden manna, and will give him a
white stone, and in the stone a new name written,
which no man knoweth saving
he that receiveth it.
18
And unto the angel of the church
in Thyatira write;
These things saith the Son of
God, who hath his eyes like unto a
flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
19
I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the
last to be more than the first.
20
Notwithstanding I have a few things against
thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself
a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to
eat things sacrificed unto idols.
21
And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented
not.
22
Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery
with her into great tribulation, except they
repent of their deeds.
23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he
which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according
to your works.
24
But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira,
as many as have not this
doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put
upon you none other burden.
25
But that which
ye have already
hold fast till I come.
26
And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give
power over the nations:
27
And he shall
rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter
shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received
of my Father.
28
And I will give him the morning
star.
29
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Psalms
97 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about
him: righteousness and judgment are the
habitation of his throne.
3 A fire goeth before
him, and burneth
up his enemies round about.
4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 The hills
melted like wax at the presence of the
LORD, at the presence
of the Lord of the whole
earth.
6 The heavens
declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Confounded be all they that serve
graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship
him, all ye gods.
8 Zion heard,
and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced
because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9 For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted
far above all gods.
10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints;
he delivereth them out of the
hand of the wicked.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright
in heart.
12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks
at the remembrance of his holiness.

according to the Spirit! I am not conformed to my flesh! The law of the Spirit of
Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death! I am
determined, with Your help, Holy Spirit, to stand firm in the freedom with
which Christ has made me free and I will never again be subject to a yoke of
bondage! So, with this authority that You have given me, Father, I resist the
spirit of fear and doubt, I cast out of my life sickness, poverty, sadness, and
depression. I receive my health, prosperity, freedom, and joy. I am healed! I
am free! I am prosperous! I am blessed! And I have already overcome. In the
name of Jesus. Amen.
Important Note:
How do I become
a Child of God? How do I establish a relationship with the
Almighty?
Just say the following prayer out loud,
putting all your attention and heart into what you are saying to God:
Lord
Jesus, I believe that You are the Son of God. That You came to this world from the virgin Mary to pay for all my sins, and I have been a sinner.
Therefore, today I say to You that I accept. I accept Your sacrifice on
the cross! I accept Your precious Blood shed to the last drop out of love for
me! I open my heart and invite You to come in because I want, Lord Jesus, that
from today and forever You be my only and sufficient Savior, my God, my King,
and my Lord.
Thank You, Almighty God, because with this
simple prayer and profession of faith I have passed from death to Life, I have been transferred from darkness
to Your marvelous Light. Today I have been Born Again! God, now I am Your
child! Now You are my Father! I will never be alone again! I will never live
defeated again. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Three Recommendations:
What just happened by
you recognizing Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior of your life, according to God's Word, is that you have been Born Again. No longer
as an ordinary human being, subject to the law of sin and death, but now as a
legitimate and authentic Child of God, Born Again, exactly like Jesus Christ, who is now your Older Brother. Therefore,
I give you these three, very important, recommendations:
1. Pray. Praying is
talking with God. So, find a quiet place where you can begin talking
to Him about everything. Do it out loud, and you will notice
how God always responds to your heart.
2. Read and meditate
on the Word of God. The Bible is the Word of God, so get a Bible
and start reading
and meditating on it. How do you begin? It’s very simple. Depending on the day,
look up the reading program “The Bible in
One Year” and do the corresponding readings. You can get this program at: Through The Bible In One Year
(palabradehonor.org). You will notice that the program is set up so you can
print it as a booklet.
3. In prayer with God,
your Father, look for and join a Christian church or congregation where
the Word of God is taught based on the Good News, which are the Gospel of Jesus
Christ.

October 2 Revelation 2 / Nehemiah
3 / Psalm 97
Revelation
2
Unto the angel of the church
of Ephesus write;
These things saith he that holdeth
the seven stars in his right hand,
who walketh in the midst of the
seven golden candlesticks;
2 I know thy works,
and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear
them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are
not, and hast found them liars:
3
And hast borne,
and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
5
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and
repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will remove
thy candlestick out of
his place, except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
7
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I
give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
8
And unto the angel of the church
in Smyrna write; These things
saith the first
and the last, which was dead, and is alive;
9
I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I
know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews,
and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10
Fear none of those
things which thou shalt suffer:
behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison,
that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days:
be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
11
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
He that overcometh shall not
be hurt of the second death.
12
And to the angel of the church
in Pergamos write;
These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two
edges;
13
I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's
seat is: and thou
holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my
faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
14
But I have
a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught
Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children
of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit
fornication.
15
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine
of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I
hate.
16
Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
17
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the
hidden manna, and will give him a
white stone, and in the stone a new name written,
which no man knoweth saving
he that receiveth it.
18
And unto the angel of the church
in Thyatira write;
These things saith the Son of
God, who hath his eyes like unto a
flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
19
I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the
last to be more than the first.
20
Notwithstanding I have a few things against
thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself
a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to
eat things sacrificed unto idols.
21
And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented
not.
22
Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery
with her into great tribulation, except they
repent of their deeds.
23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he
which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according
to your works.
24
But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira,
as many as have not this
doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put
upon you none other burden.
25
But that which
ye have already
hold fast till I come.
26
And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give
power over the nations:
27
And he shall
rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter
shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received
of my Father.
28
And I will give him the morning
star.
29
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Psalms
97 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about
him: righteousness and judgment are the
habitation of his throne.
3 A fire goeth before
him, and burneth
up his enemies round about.
4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 The hills
melted like wax at the presence of the
LORD, at the presence
of the Lord of the whole
earth.
6 The heavens
declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Confounded be all they that serve
graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship
him, all ye gods.
