Whose Victory Is It?

Are you tired, are you weary, are you about done? Are you through with the constant battle just to keep your head above the water? Are you ready to give up? Well, I have good news for you: this battle can not be won on your own. You see, I know your frailties, and I know your weaknesses; I know where you struggle, and I know your defeats. But know this too: this battle is not yours alone, the battle is mine, and if the battle is mine then the victory is already won. For I have placed every enemy under the feet of my Son; every enemy, every obstacle, every lack, every disease, every stronghold is under His feet. I have the victory and I want you to walk in that victory as I share the spoils of the battle with you.

Activation: As a body of believers, we can easily keep our struggles to ourselves, not wanting others to know what we are going through. We, therefore, keep ourselves in shame and defeat, hiding it because of our pride. Today, challenge yourself to speak to a trustworthy person about your struggles. Pray together, for this is the function of the body, and this is how we walk in victory.

Psalm 44:3 (NIV)

It was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them. 

1 Corinthians 15:57 (NIV)

But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Psalms 8:5-6 (NIV)

You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honour. You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet

1 John 5:3-5 (NIV)

And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
