Topic : Walking In Victory.

Memory Verse : ‭Proverbs 4:23. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. (KJV)

Bible Reading : ‭2 Corinthians 10:3-5 NIV‬. Key Verse: v4.

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

I once heard a man of God say that life is a warfare and not a funfare. I also read a book by Dick Eastman titled No Easy Road. The book is worth reading and it focuses on prayer. It teaches that prayer is not an easy task, it demands commitment and men who want to pray to influence things on earth by the power of God should be ready to pay the price. Having said that, now we live a world full of all kinds of powers, interests, arguments, etc. All of them are trying to catch our attention and gain our acceptance as to exercise control over us as individuals. These battles most time takes place in our minds in the form of thoughts that prop up in our minds. The enemy we know doesn’t have the capacity to read our minds, but he project thoughts into the mind of people. At the same time, we have what it takes to accept or reject such thoughts. Therefore what we are responsible to control what we enters our minds because at the end they will influence the way we behave and things we do.

Now man is made up three components; spirit, soul and body. The flesh is a housing of the real thing (the soul). The spirit is the breath of God that gave man life which returns to him at the end of our earthly life. The soul is where the real expression of the man is. The soul is the one that goes for reward or punishment depending on how we lived our lives here on earth. Now we can be ruled by our flesh or spirit man, depending on the one we nurture to take charge or control of our soul. “The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.” Romans 8:7-9.

To live victorious therefore we need to understand the nature of man and the battles of life as to fight from the point of victory. No man can win the battles of life by his flesh of physical power and ability. Rather we walk in victory when we align with the father of all spirits. At this point he leads to walk by the victory of the cross. His Spirit empowering our own spirit makes us walk in divine wisdom and strength that the enemy is helpless about. We must also learn to build walls of protection (faith) around our hearts or thought life using the bricks of the word of God. The word is the right instrument that has capacity to shield our hearts, minds or thought life from the incursions of the wicked one when he throws his darts to puncture our confidence in the Lord. We anchor our battles on our knees through prayer. No praying man fails in life, be assured. ‭”“Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” Joshua 1:7-8.

Prayer :Thank you Father God for loving me and giving me all it takes to be victorious daily in this life. Help me to also fight alongside you using every resources you have made available to me through Jesus Christ my saviour. I worship you for you have done for me in Jesus blessed name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : Mathew 5:1-16.
