God want us to live a victorious life, that was why he sent Jesus.
I John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
I John 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
What is Victorious life?
A Victorious life is when you live triumphantly over the world and all that is in it on a daily basis.
How does the devil rule the world?
▪︎The devil rules the world with his foot soldiers and element: Demons, principalities, witches, powers, occult etc.
Ephesians 1:21-23
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:And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
▪︎The devil rules the world through his antics:
I John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world.
A victorious life lives above all these.
A victorious life can also be said to be a life of peace, joy, and the miraculous on a daily basis. Simply put -living God's kingdom on earth. Romans 14:17
How do you access this victorious life?
1. Salvation: Salvation is a total package of God to bring a Christian into the victorious life. It goes beyond surrendering your life to Christ, though this is the starting point. In salvation, a sinner is redeemed and adopted as a son. As a son, he is a joint heir with Christ. Everything that Christ enjoys becomes his lot. The full package of salvation is revealed in Revelation 5:12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
2. Putting God first: God is always interested in people that put Him first.
Solomon was an example, in one night he sacrificed a thousand burnt offering. I Kings 3:3-5. He had a very peaceful reign. During his reign there was no war, it is victorious life that your enemies be at peace with you. Mathew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. When we seek God first he takes care of things for you.
3. Righteousness: A righteous man is never at the mercy of anyone. He is the apple of the eyes of God. Zachariah 2:8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
God always exalt a righteous man above every issue of life. He exalts them such that they live heaven on earth, their enemies are discomfited without a fight.
4. Love: God is love, anyone that lives in love live in God. So if you live in God what can confront you. You will definitely live a victorious life.
I John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love, he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
God want to start a new beginning with you. He wants you to begin to live a victorious life where everything is at your command and the power of darkness submit to you with absolute surrendered. Commit yourself to access this life today.
