“Victory in Jesus”
Over the last few months the devil has
been working overtime here in SC. But, that is to be expected if you decide to
win “Souls for Jesus!” If that’s your
battle cry then get ready for the assault…he will not let up one minute of the
day if you don’t use the Lord’s battle plan for “Victory in Jesus”!
He knows exactly where and when to attack
based upon his observations of your life during the time since you have decided
to follow Jesus and put your life on the line for lost souls…just like He
did…want to be like Jesus? Then give your all to win souls…and in the process
be an intercessor for those who are saved!
Those are the two areas that get the
devil’s attention. When he sees a fire lit by the Holy Spirit’s presence in the
life of a believer then it becomes his priority to put it out…immediately if
not sooner! Now, he is not omni-anything, but he knows you like a book from his
observations…check out his knowledge of Job…’nuff said!
Therefore, in order to walk in victory you
must apply the Biblical principles to your life that have worked since the
beginning of time itself. The battle plan is simple! Digest the living, all
powerful Word of God! Feed the Holy Spirit of God the only diet that will
quench His thirst and satisfy His hunger!
This is not a deep, dark secret of some
kind of super-spirituality, no, this has been the answer since the beginning.
Notice what Moses wrote to the children of Israel. Read Deuteronomy 6:4-9. His
successor Joshua continued the same instruction when he wrote Joshua 1:8! You
want spiritual success meditate on the Word!
David understood where the power from God
was located when he wrote on numerous occasions about the answer to the Holy
Spirit’s presence and power. It is found in memorizing and meditating on the
Word of God. Psalm1:3, and in Psalm 119 on seven occasions meditation is found.
His son Solomon also in the Proverbs gave at least seven exhortations to
memorize/meditate on the Word.
The prophet Jeremiah supplies additional
Scripture showing us his practice:
“Thy Words were found and I did eat them, and Thy Word was unto me the
joy and rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by Thy Name O Lord God of
hosts.” (Jeremiah 15:16).
John, (I John 2:13,14), Paul (Colossians
3:16; Ephesians 6:17), James 1:21, and the Lord Jesus Himself (John 6:63, 15:7,
17:17) gave instruction showing that “Victory in Jesus” is only found through
digesting the pure Word of God!! This list is not exhaustive but serves to
prove that the Word of God is the key to victory!
This is what happens when you memorize and
meditate on the Word. Supernatural faith is produced within your soul. You
begin to believe the truths found in the Word. The seemingly impossible becomes
possible as your faith is strengthened. Where your mind spends it’s time is
where you live, beloved!
Victory over wrong thinking or any other attack of the devil is provided
by the Lord Jesus through faith. Remember, “the
just shall live by faith”…and “without
faith it is impossible to please God”…when you please Him, He delivers you
from seemingly impossible situations by His great power which is only found in
His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ…Who is The Ever-living Supernatural WORD of God!!
Makes sense to me! Amen?
It is not by struggling in the flesh to
overcome the battle of wrong thinking or any other battle you are facing, no,
the supernatural power of God is applied by faith…that is what puts Him into
action…”Victory in Jesus”…pure and simple!! Resting in Him, expecting Him to
deliver you is faith in action…He loves it!!
“I heard an old, old story, how
the Savior came from glory. How He gave His life on Calvary
to save a wretch like me. I heard about His groaning, His precious Blood
atoning, and I repented of my sin, and won the Victory. Oh, “Victory in Jesus”,
my Savior forever, He sought me and He bought me with His redeeming Blood!!!”
