Victorious in Jesus Christ

There is no greater privilege in life than knowing Jesus. There is no greater advantage than the presence and power of the Holy Spirit within you. No matter where you come from, how you were raised, or what disadvantages life seemingly forced upon you, the Bible declares that you are victorious if you are in Christ.

Romans 8:31- What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Romans 8:37-Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

This of course does not mean that we will never face hardships. This simply means that even in hardships, we are victorious, because we belong to God.

Being victorious does not mean that I don’t face difficulties. Being victorious means that even in difficulties, I continue to believe that Jesus wins in the end because He has the final say. The victorious believer does not allow exterior circumstances to diminish inner joy neither does the victorious believer allow the actions of others to steal their peace.

• In persecution, we have God’s love.

• In loneliness, we have God’s presence.

• Even in death, we have eternal life. 

You have God’s attention, His voice, His favor, and His love. God opens doors, brings opportunities, and shapes your destiny. What can anyone do to us? Truly, the believer can never be a victim. No person, no system, no government, or idea can hold us down. We are never victims but we are more than conquerors.

With this God given position of eternal victory comes the responsibility of walking in it. And one of the keys to walking in Heavenly dominion is thinking according to the truth which is having a godly mindset.

Thoughts are the actions of the mind which only means, you have the ability to choose your thought patterns. The choice is ours: we can either choose to live with a victim mindset, constantly blaming everyone and everything else around us for our defeats and challenges, settling for less when God has more, or we can choose to allow the truth to affect our thinking.

It’s time to embrace your privilege and the privilege is Christ in you.
