The Life Of Victory
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ
(1 Corinthians 15:57).
When God raised Jesus from the dead, you
were raised together with Him. Now,
you’re seated with Him, “Far above all principality,
and power, and might, and dominion, and every
name that is named, not only in this world, but also
in that which is to come” (Ephesians 1:21).
It makes no difference what happens in this world,
you’re more than a conqueror; you’re a success. God
has given you a life greater than sickness, disease,
failure and death; a life of peace, strength, health and
prosperity; the victorious life.
The knowledge of these realities should evidently
change the way you talk, walk or act. Don’t ask God
to give you peace, strength, health, prosperity or make
you a success. These and more are all encapsulated
in the glorious life you have in Christ. I’ll give you
examples.
First, the Lord Jesus said in John 14:27, “Peace
I leave with you, my peace I give unto you....” That
means He has become your peace. Secondly, Psalm
27:1 says, “…the LORD is the strength of my life….”
Thirdly, He’s made you healthy and strong. Isaiah
33:24 says, “And the inhabitant (of Zion) shall not
say, I am sick….”
In addition, He’s given you prosperity. 1 Corinthians
3:21 says, “Therefore let no man glory in men. For all
things are yours.” Then Philippians 4:19 tells us, “But
my God shall supply all your need according to his
riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” That means there’s no
lack in your life, for the Lord supplies all your needs.
Psalm 1:3 describes you as a tree planted by the rivers
of water, that brings forth fruit in and out of season; and
whatsoever you do shall prosper. What a blessing!
Now that you’re born again, you’re a bundle of
success. You belong in God’s Kingdom, His realm of
life where you reign victoriously with Christ.
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for the glorious life in Christ! I walk
in righteousness and exercise dominion over devils, sickness,
and the negativities of life today and always, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.
