Is it Possible to Overcome Evil with Good?

Overcoming evil with good is possible to those who believe. The good in us must be strong and sturdy. Goodness comes from love and compassion. To get our goodness and compassion on point, we must spend the proper quality time with the Lord. Goodness is one of the 9 fruits of the Spirit we received at the new birth, becoming a Christian (Galatians 5:22-23). These fruits are in seed form and need to be developed by opposition and challenging situations. For goodness to overcome evil it must be developed enough to stand when the opposition brings the mother storm into your life. Through experience we learn self control and discipline. In our everyday lives as we practice being good to all, it will enforce a tough skin against evil. Jesus overcame evil because of His insistence to complete His God given purpose. Without the goodness of God, Jesus wouldn’t have been sent to earth to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). Now we are free from habitual sin; which sends anybody to hell having not accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. Justice must be satisfied before you die on earth. The great commission is to go into all the world to preach, and teach, the gospel (Mark 16:15). You’ll need to be able to overcome evil with good, so you can stand your ground.
