Chosen by God!
“But thanks be to God, Who gives us the victory [making us conquerors] through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be firm (steadfast), immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord [always being superior, excelling, doing more than enough in the service of the Lord], knowing and being continually aware that your labor in the Lord is not futile [it is never wasted or to no purpose].” (I Corinthians 15:57-58 AMPC)
Don’t give up. In Jesus we are assured victory. We have it. All we have to do is walk in it through faith. It doesn't mean we won't have troubles. It means we will be victorious even when troubles come!
"I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you." (John 16:33 AMPC)
Jesus told us trouble is inevitable. He also told us we don't have to be concerned because He's taken care of it. I'm keeping my eyes on Jesus!
“No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.” (Romans 8:37 NLT)
