OVERCOME

"We shall overcome, We shall overcome
We shall overcome someday
Deep in my heart I do believe
We shall overcome someday
We shall live in peace, we shall live in peace
We shall live in peace someday
Deep in my heart I do believe
We shall overcome someday
We shall organize, we shall organize
We shall organize today
Deep in my heart I do believe
We shall overcome someday We'll walk hand in hand, we'll walk hand in hand
We'll walk hand in hand someday
Deep in my heart I do believe
We shall overcome someday We are not afraid, we are not afraid
We are not afraid today
Deep in my heart I do believe
We shall overcome someday"

This song has been used many times throught history as a song for the down trodden to be uplifted. Galatians 6:9 says that we are to not be weary while doing good, because we will reap the benefits in due time. If God is on ourside who can be against us.

This is the last verse from Romans 12. It states that we are not to be overcomed, we are to overcome. It is hard to be strong in the face of problems, or evil. That is what God wants, He is there with us, and even if it seems the enemy has won the battle, we already have the victory. God won when Jesus died and was ressurected. Yes, battles still rage everyday, we can overcome them. Believe God has everything in control.

Lord help me to believe and put all my faith in your marvelous victory!
