LIVE IN VICTORY

"For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith". 1 John 5:4 NIV

There is nothing as exciting as winning in an uncertain world. The taste of victory is always sweet and fascinating. Victory is essential to our health and happiness. Defeat can be destructive and remaining in the state of defeat can destroy our faith. It is not God’s will for you to walk in defeat, but it is His will for you and I to rise up in the middle of Satan’s attacks and live in victory. 

To live in victory you must think victorious and you must never accept defeat. It is impossible to live in victory without a victorious perception and concept. There is an old saying which says "you are what you eat"; This is true for our lives, If you are defeated in your thought life with negative thoughts of failure then you will never win, but if you put your mind into victory and faith you will always win. 

Too many Christians give up when they are attacked with challenges. They want to just sit down and not move, thinking if they don’t do anything maybe the devil won't notice them, and he will leave them alone; wrong! You have already defeated yourself in your mind, you're just existing in defeat. When you are defeated, your progress is stopped, your prayer life is stopped and your commitment to service is stopped too.

When you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10), you automatically become a true Christian born of God. From that moment, your name changes to Overcomer and Victorious. The consciousness of this increases your faith and gives you the victory you require at any point in time in this world. Remember Victory is your name.
