Do you know what kind of determination it takes to
succeed and be an overcomer in life?
►First, let’s define what determination is: the act of deciding definitely and firmly;
firm or fixed intention to achieve a desired end.
►Second, what does it mean to be an overcomer? One who succeeds in dealing with or gaining
control of some problem or difficulty.
To have the kind of determination to succeed in life and
be an overcomer one must decide to firmly fix their attention on their desired
goals in life, and rise above challenges that may hinder complete victory.
Having
determination means:
·
Staying focused on your goals
·
Delaying gratification like rewarding
yourself after not before you achieve a desired outcome
·
Facing fears and overcoming them
·
Learning from mistakes made in the past
and not repeating them
·
Are able to ignore the things you have no
control over
·
Never whining or complaining about
problems
·
Eliminate negative thinking
·
Continuing to move forward in spite of opposition
and challenges
·
Not making excuses and blaming others for
your situation
Having determination will help you succeed in life and
will move you towards becoming an overcomer with life’s challenges. A person of
determination never gives up, goes back, or quits. An overcomer has gained
victory over areas in their lives that could have the potential to derail,
hinder and even prevent success. Overcomers have mastered their fleshly appetites
such as addiction, greed and sexual immorality, and have learned how to
conqueror the enemy. To be successful not just in worldly pursuits but for the
Kingdom of Christ you will need to be determined and an overcomer. Overcomers
have endured the affliction of the “furnace” and come forth as “pure gold.”
