"Everyday Victory!"

 

"Christ Jesus Paid the Price!"

 

1 Corinthians 15:57 (New International Version)

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

 

Like the Apostle Paul, and other Apostles and Believers in Christ, I too love to tell everyone of the Victory in Jesus in my life.

How is it then that there are so few who will boldly witness to the Victory in Jesus in their own lives?

I love telling others of the King of Kings, who came to earth and completed God's plan of forgiveness and redemption for mankind?

For thousands of years wars, struggle and persecution have plagued God's chosen people, but I stand fast in my Faith, knowing and believing in God's Promise of a Deliverer, a Savior who came from heaven, the Holy One of God who faced and overcame every temptation of the devil, who unceasingly accuses, persecutes and tempts Believers in Christ.

Victory in Jesus, is where Christ defeated the enemy of God on my behalf, overcoming the fallen angel of darkness called satan.

It is the supreme sacrifice made by Christ Jesus, HIS death and resurrection that I choose to celebrate, much like the sacrifice made by men and women of the past, who leave their homes, fight and die in foreign lands of battle, HE has secured a place for me in HIS Eternal Kingdom, where I will enjoy liberties and freedoms as a citizen of heaven.

For it was 2000 years ago on a Cross, that the King of Heaven, left HIS home in Glory, gave HIS life for me, purchasing my soul with HIS precious lifegiving blood.

Today, I will rejoice and Praise the Son of God, who loved me more than HIS own life, carrying the weight and quilt of my transgression, bearing them in my place.

How then, can I but not tell all the world of HIS story, a Savior and Redeemer who left HIS home in heaven, was born of a virgin, lived a Holy and Righteous life, died and was resurrected by God's Power, Holy Spirit?

My confession of my own guilt of sin, repentence leading to a life sanctified by Faith, I accept HIM as my Lord, receiving HIS Promise of Eternal Life, then the testimony I give of HIM is,

           There is everlasting Victory in Jesus,
                   and everyday I choose to serve HIM!!!

 

 

O'Lord, YOUR story of Love and Victory,
I must tell to others who live in defeat!
YOUR Love that surpasses all understanding,
Victory in YOU that is without end!!
Strengthen me each day with WORDs of Courage,
to witness of YOUR TRUTH,
in this great hour of need!!!
By YOUR Spirit, I am clothed and fed,
prepared and commissioned,
into YOUR army of spiritual warriors!
I give YOU thanks, O'Lord, my God!!!

 

 

Amen!
