Little children, you exist from God and overcome together because the one in you is greater than the one in the world.*
Dear children of God this promise is for you, always remember this, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. God has blessed his children, choosing us in Him before the creation of the world to exist holy before him in his presence in love.* When we believed in him we were sealed with the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of such an inheritance as His own children. Blessed with all spiritual blessings in the heavenlies in Christ, we were adopted as children, given a Spirit of adoption. The Spirit of God and Christ is in us, greater is He that is in you.
And because you exist, sons, God has dispatched on a service the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out Abba Father!*
The Spirit is called the Spirit of his Son, of Christ. Paul prays that we grow strong in power through His Spirit, that in our inner being Christ is dwelling in our hearts through faith, rooted and grounded in love.* These blessings we receive in Christ, of adoption, redemption, the forgiveness of sin are foundational, things we should comprehend if we should grow strong in the Lord. We fix our eyes on Jesus, the author, and the perfector of our faith. Through believing in Him we were sealed with the Spirit and through faith we overcome, as greater is he that is in us. This is such great news. When I take my eyes off Jesus during the storm, overwhelmed by circumstances, faith seemingly failing, I cry out for help, greater is He who is in me.

And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.*
He has promised never to leave nor forsake His children. He is working out all things for our good. His being in us is greater than our lack of faith. Jesus is the author and perfecter of faith, thus through Him, I will overcome as He is greater in me and greater than me. He is faithful, bringing into existence things that do not exist, in him nothing is impossible. When the genuineness of faith is tested, greater is He that is in us and together we will overcome.
