In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”  1 John 4:4 empowers the believer with the following, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”  Jesus Christ became the Ultimate Praise unto the Father by being obedient unto death even the death of the Cross.  “By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name._Hebrews 13:15.”
