Rhapsody Of Realities Sun 21 July 2024 | Always In Victory
Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ… (2 Corinthians 2:14).
In 1 Corinthians 15:57, Paul pens something similar to what we just read in our theme scripture. It says, “But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” We’re always in victory.
This is a result of who we are in Christ and what we know — our knowledge of His Word.
Who are we? We’re more than conquerors; we’re born of God: “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” (1 John 4:4). Hallelujah!
What do we know? “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose”
(Romans 8:28).
We know that come what may; no matter the situation or where we find ourselves; nothing can be to our disadvantage. How could we lose with the Holy Spirit in us? Consider David who didn’t even have the Holy Spirit living in him as we do in Christ; he never lost a battle in his day. By the Holy Spirit upon him, and his faith in the Abrahamic covenant, he won every battle. Our Lord Jesus already won victory over the world for us, and as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17). Keep these truths in your mind and meditate on them continually.
The Word says in Colossians 3:17, “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus….” Doing all things in His Name means living in His Name. That means you’re living for Him, in His authority. Therefore, defeat, failure, and poverty can’t be a part of your life.
This consciousness should stir extraordinary boldness in your spirit such that you’re totally unruffled by any crisis. Everything in life is subject to the power and authority of His Name and because you live in His Name, you’ll always win. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
Thank you heavenly Father for my heritage in Christ! I’m always in victory; everything I do prospers, because I
have the life of God in me and I’ve overcome the world.
Thank you for giving me the Name of Jesus, to use and to live by. By the power and authority of that Name, I make progress with giant strides today, with all of nature, and everything that exists, working together in my favour, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
