VICTORIOUS

Every child of God is victorious because he/she believes in Christ Jesus who is the Son of God. He that came through water and blood; His baptism and death. The one who relies confidently on Him as Savior has the testimony within himself because he can speak authoritatively about Christ from his personal experience. For God has given us eternal life in Christ.

This is the conquering power that brings the world on its knees, our faith. Our persistent faith in Christ is what overcomes the world. For nothing can separate us from His love. Not tribulations, hardships, persecution, distress or destitution can. It’s our profession of who we are that makes us overcome the world.

When we look at David and Goliath’s story, Goliath looked like a giant and him only a young boy. But David knew his strength came from God. He knew the Israelite's where God’s armies and he couldn’t put up with Goliath’s threats. He believed that the God, who granted him victory while tending his father’s sheep, would also grant him victory over Goliath.

David approached him with only his staff and five smooth stones. He said to him, “You come to me using a sword and two spears. But I come to you in the name of the Lord All-Powerful. Naturally it’s not possible to go to war with these but God’s strategies are supernatural the canal mind cannot comprehend. God surely granted him victory over the Philistine. God granted David numerous victories, over the Philistines, the Moabites, e.t.c. wherever David sent out for war God always granted him victory because he trusted in Him.

Let us also look at how God delivered the Israelite's from Egypt, He told Moses to use his rod as a weapon this rod performed supernatural miracles in front of Pharaoh that the canal mind cannot understand. Moses obeyed God’s instructions he didn’t go to Pharaoh armed with a mighty army no! He just used a simple rod and God granted them victory.

Another example is Jesus Christ while here on earth, He never experienced any defeat. Be it in the wilderness when the devil tempted him he knew the word. He fought back by confessing the word. While there was a storm he overcame by professing, even when he stood before the High Priests he knew who he was and also conquered death.

So what is that situation that's facing you now? Remember, God’s ways are not man’s ways. Living in a world where we have to face challenges we should rely completely on God. Ask for His wisdom and trust Him completely. For this is the confidence we have in Him our unshakable faith, that can move mountains. Our proclamations can give us victories and take us to dimensions unfathomable.
