Invincible
As a child of God, one is invincible. According to the dictionary, the word “invincible” means too powerful to defeat or overcome. How beautiful is that word in the context of a child of God. The word of God says in 1 Peter 1:3: “being begotten again, not out of a corruptible seed, but incorruptible, through a word of God -- living and remaining -- to the age” (YLT).
Let us break this scripture down for great understanding and revelation. The word “begotten” is another word for “born.” However, more distinctly begotten means the only one of the same kind. Jesus Christ is referred to as the only begotten Son of the Father. In 1 Peter 1:3, the seed refers to the “word of God” as stated in Luke 8:11, “the seed is the word of God” (YLT).
As believers, we are children of God according to John 1:13, we are “children born not of blood, nor of the desire of will of man, but born of God” (YLT). Jesus Christ is the world made flesh and when a person receives Jesus Christ, he or she receives the seed, the living Word of God. The Word of God is alive in us and transforms us to into the perfect image and likeness of Christ by the Spirit of God.
Hebrews 4:12 states, the word of God is living and active and in us. James 1:18 states, “He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we would be a kind of first fruits of creation” (YLT). As believers, we are not subject to the world, Hence, children of God are not bound by sin or controlled by it. We are called up higher in purpose and destiny. 1 John 3:9 states, “Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin, because God’s seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God” (YLT). We have been given a new birth no longer born of the flesh but of God. This makes us cool and invincible. He or she is longer subject to the world. Children of God cannot fail, we cannot lack, or be unfruitful. 2 Peter 1:3: "Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion[a] to God has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness." (TPT). Therefore, the body of Christ has the mandate to do good to all and love like Christ. Let go after the Harvest.
