As many times as I have read these WORDs of Jesus, I always come to the realization that HE was explaining something that can only be understood by the wisdom of Holy Spirit.

Even as Christ tells of how HE knows HIS sheep, I think back to those times in my life when I did not fully understand HIS WORDs, even though I believed and trusted HIM as my Lord and Savior.

Gaining from HIM, Immunity from Destruction, did not mean I will live as someone who is defeated in this life!

For me to receive God's Promise, I must depend completely and totally upon HIM, Trusting and Believing that Power and Authority over the enemy comes from Christ Jesus alone, it is then I fully understand that I have gained Victory NOW, TODAY, TOMORROW and for ETERNITY!

HIS WORD clearly states, 'no one is able to snatch (steal) them out of my Father's hand', simply saying that to be defeated, then I am the one who must decide between following Obediently after my Master and live EVERY DAY Victoriously over the enemy, or turn away from following HIM, having had my victory stolen by the enemy that seeks to bring darkness and destruction upon my life.
