There’s always going to be someone who tries to tell you your dream or call is impossible. Or someone who tries to intimidate you so that you don’t go after or speak the Truth. If we aren’t careful, their words and actions will overcome us. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he shows us the way to overcome the naysayers in his timely message, Stop the Bullying.
2 Samuel 6:16, 20
Judges 11:4–11
2 Samuel 6:21–23
Overcoming Bullies
God didn’t create any of us to be bullies or to be bullied. We can overcome bullying through knowing who we are in Christ Jesus. We may not be able to stop the physical bullying, but we can overcome the bullying.
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
1 John 5:3-5
Know Who Is In You
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:37-39
The Word of God is in us. That means that the light of God is inside of us, and when the light shines in the darkness it overcomes the darkness. It overcomes the bullying and stops the effects of bullying.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
John 1:5
10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
