STAND IN YOUR VICTORY

TEXT:1 John 5:4 

*For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.* 

Our Lord Jesus affirmatively declared in John 16:33 that you should be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. And our study text today is saying to you that whatever that is born of God overcomes the world. This means that as a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ, you are not to fight to obtain victory but to stand in the victory you were born into.

Are you born again? If yes, then, you are born of God, and if you are born of God, you've already  overcome the world.

Your fight therefore is not a fight to obtain victory but a fight to stand in your victory- the victory that God has wrought for you through our Lord Jesus Christ. 

The only fight you are called to fight is the fight of faith. It is the fight that keeps you in the victory that Christ has obtained for you.(1 Timothy 6:12).

The enemy knows too well that once you are unable to believe what Jesus Christ did for you on the cross, then you've fallen flat on your face. So, you must know that the victory that overcomes the world is your faith. 

Even before Jesus' ascension, one of the  prayers he made for Peter was that his faith would not fail. "But I have prayed for you, that your faith will  not fail..."(Luke 22:32)


 *You can lose anything or even everything and still be victorious, but if your faith fails, then victory is lost.* 

You are to believe who Jesus Christ IS and WHAT He has done for you. When you BELIEVE HIM, then you are more than a conqueror. 

It is intriguing to know that a person who did not go to war has been declared to be more than a conqueror. This is only possible because  your victory is your birth right. It is yours because you are born of God.

Yes, in all these things *we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.(Romans 8:37).* 

As you Stay and Stand  in Faith, then Victory will always be yours.

 *Bible Reading* : 

1 John 5:1-5.

 *PRAYE FOCUS* 

Father Lord, I stand in the victory you've wrought for me, and I declare that I am more than conqueror in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
