The Spirit of Overcoming

This series explores what it means to truly overcome in the life of faith. Each class examines biblical examples of struggle, perseverance, and victory, showing how men and women of God found strength not in themselves, but in prayer, faith, and reliance on His word. From the wilderness trials of Israel to the victories of Gideon, the lessons of faithful kings, and the perfect example of Jesus, these exhortations call us to face our own battles with courage, determination, and hope in the promises of God. The spirit of overcoming is not just about enduring hardship—it is about pressing on to the reward that awaits those who remain steadfast until the end.

Is the Lord Among Us or Not?

The series begins with Israel’s struggle in the wilderness, when Amalek attacked them in a moment of weakness. This class highlights the danger of fainting in faith, the necessity of prayer, and the reminder that our strength comes not from ourselves but from God who fights for us.

Faint But Pursuing

Drawing on the life of Gideon, this class shows how faith perseveres even when weary. Gideon’s persistence in pursuing victory despite exhaustion teaches that overcoming is not about ease, but about continuing forward in reliance on God when strength seems gone.

For God Is With You

This study focuses on Samuel, Saul, and the challenge of passing on faith to the next generation. It emphasizes that true overcoming involves trusting God’s presence in times of national and personal crisis, rather than looking to human strength or worldly solutions.

Shouldest Thou Help the Ungodly?

The life of Jehoshaphat provides both inspiration and warning. While his zeal to strengthen Judah through teaching and faith was commendable, his alliances with the ungodly exposed his weaknesses. The exhortation is to rely fully on God and to overcome compromise by choosing righteousness.

I Have Overcome the World

At the heart of the series is the example of Jesus, the only one who could say with certainty, “I have overcome the world.” His life of faith, courage, and obedience provides the model for every disciple. By looking intently at his example, we learn how to find peace in a world filled with tribulation.

He Shall Be My Son

The series concludes with the glorious promise of Revelation: “He that overcometh shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.” This closing exhortation lifts our eyes to the reward, urging us to remain steadfast so that we too may share in the joy of God’s eternal kingdom.
