The nature of God

In 1 john 4:5, the bible records that whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world and the last part of this verse actually reveals that whosoever has received Christ as lord is born of God. God did not give us birth in the way men do; he did it through his word. (Having be born again, not of corruptible seed, but of the incorruptible WORD of God, which lives and abides forever. 1peter 1:23). When you receive Jesus as lord, the word of God regenerates your spirit and deposits the very nature of God inside your spirit. Nature alone can also teach us a lesson: a son will always have the same nature as the father and the bible clearly reveals that we are sons of God! (Galatians 4:6). So then since God has given us his very nature, this means that we have the power to function like him. God functions the way he does because of his nature, and now having been born again, we have his very nature of God. This is what God planned before the foundations of the world; to glorify man. God has great confidence in us, because we have the very thing (his nature) that enables him to function the way he does. This is the reason you should never permit the enemy to mess with you, you are superior to him, live beyond limits. You are a child of glory and you have the power to accomplish anything!
