how to evercome the world.

2. 1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God! He
gives us the victory
through our Lord Jesus
Christ.

3. 1 John 2:15-17
15
Do not love the world or anything in the
world. If anyone loves the world, the love of
the Father is not in him.
16
For everything in the world—the cravings of
sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting
of what he has and does—comes not from the
Father but from the world.
17
The world and its desires pass away, but the man
who does the will of God lives forever.

6. •Craving of sinful man
•Lust of his eyes or lust of his
flesh
•Pride of life or boasting for
what he has or does

7. The Bible speaks of different meaning of
the word “WORLD”.
1. John 3:16---16
"For God so loved the world
that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life.
2. Gen 1:1--- 1
In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth.
3. 1 John 2:15--- 15
Do not love the world or
anything in the world. If anyone loves the
world, the love of the Father is not in
him.

want. You quarrel and fight. You
do not have, because you do not

10. 3 Major things to Overcome the world
4. James 5:17-18---17
Elijah was a man
just like us. He prayed earnestly
that it would not rain, and it did
not rain on the land for three and a
half years. 18
Again he prayed, and
the heavens gave rain, and the
earth produced its crops.
5. Phil 4:6---6
Do not be anxious about
anything, but in everything, by
prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your requests
to God.
I. PRAYER

11. A prayerful Christian is a
powerful Christian.
A prayer less Christian is a
powerless Christian.

12. We can overcome the world through:
1. Mark 11:22-24--- 22
"Have[a]
faith
in God," Jesus answered. 23
"I tell
you the truth, if anyone says to
this mountain, 'Go, throw
yourself into the sea,' and does
not doubt in his heart but
believes that what he says will
happen, it will be done for him.
24
Therefore I tell you, whatever
you ask for in prayer, believe
that you have received it, and it
will be yours.
II. FAITH

13. We can overcome the world through:
2. Mt 21:22-24-- 21
Jesus replied, "I tell
you the truth, if you have faith and
do not doubt, not only can you do
what was done to the fig tree, but
also you can say to this mountain,
'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and
it will be done. 22
If you believe, you
will receive whatever you ask for in
prayer.“
II. FAITH

14. We can overcome the world through:
3. James 5:13-15--- 13
Is any one of
you in trouble? He should pray. Is
anyone happy? Let him sing songs
of praise. 14
Is any one of you sick?
He should call the elders of the
church to pray over him and
anoint him with oil in the name of
the Lord. 15
And the prayer offered
in faith will make the sick person
well; the Lord will raise him up. If
he has sinned, he will be forgiven.
II. FAITH

15. We can overcome the world through:
Matthew 8:5-13---5
When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a
centurion came to him, asking for help. 6
"Lord," he said,
"my servant lies at home paralyzed and in terrible
suffering." 7
Jesus said to him, "I will go and heal him."
8
The centurion replied, "Lord, I do not deserve to have you
come under my roof. But just say the word, and my
servant will be healed. 9
For I myself am a man under
authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, 'Go,'
and he goes; and that one, 'Come,' and he comes. I say
to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
FAITH

16. 10
When Jesus heard this, he was astonished and said
to those following him, "I tell you the truth, I
have not found anyone in Israel with such great
faith. 11
I say to you that many will come from the
east and the west, and will take their places at
the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the
kingdom of heaven.
12
But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown
outside, into the darkness, where there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth."
13
Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! It will be
done just as you believed it would." And his
servant was healed at that very hour.

17. Why faith is important?
1. Hebrews 11:6---6
And without faith
it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to
him must believe that he exists
and that he rewards those who
earnestly seek him.
2. Eph 2:8---8
For it is by grace you
have been saved, through faith—
and this not from yourselves, it is
the gift of God—

18. How do we get this kind
of faith?
Romans 10:17—
17
Consequently, faith comes from
hearing the message, and the
message is heard through the
word of Christ.

19. We can overcome the world through:
3. CHARACTER/CHRIST-LIKENESS
we live and walk in love

20. James 5:13-16
13
Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is
anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise.
14
Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders
of the church to pray over him and anoint him
with oil in the name of the Lord.
15
And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick
person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he
has sinned, he will be forgiven.
16
Therefore confess your sins to each other and
pray for each other so that you may be
healed. The prayer of a righteous man is
powerful and effective.

21. 2. James 2:14-26
14
What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have
faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
15
Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and
daily food.
16
If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep
warm and well fed," but does nothing about his
physical needs, what good is it?
17
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not
accompanied by action, is dead.
18
But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds."
Show me your faith without deeds, and I
will show you my faith by what I do.
19
You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the
demons believe that—and shudder.
20
You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without
deeds is useless?

22. 21
Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous
for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the
altar?
22
You see that his faith and his actions were working
together, and his faith was made complete by what
he did.
23
And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham
believed God, and it was credited to him as
righteousness," and he was called God's friend.
24
You see that a person is justified by what he does and
not by faith alone.
25
In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute
considered righteous for what she did when she gave
lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different
direction?
26
As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith
without deeds is dead.

23. 1 Corinthians 13:1-8
1
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not
love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries
and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move
mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3
If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to
the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not
boast, it is not proud.
5
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it
keeps no record of wrongs.
6
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always
perseveres.
8
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will
cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where
there is knowledge, it will pass away.

24. Fake faith vs. genuine faith
2 Peter 2:5-7
5
if he did not spare the ancient world when he
brought the flood on its ungodly people, but
protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness,
and seven others;
6
if he condemned the cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and
made them an example of what is going to
happen to the ungodly;
7
and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who
was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless
men

25. Galatians 5:22-23
22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love,
joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness,
23
gentleness and self-control. Against
such things there is no law.

26. Hebrews 1:9
9
You have loved righteousness and
hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God,
has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the
oil of joy."[a]

27. 1 Thessalonians 4:7
7
For God did not call us to be impure, but to
live a holy life.
Matthew 6:33
33
But seek first his kingdom and his
righteousness, and all these things
will be given to you as well.

29. Only God’s children can
overcome the world.

30. If we are God’s children, we need
to seek God first, His Kingdom
and His righteousness
