YOU’RE A VICTOR EVERY DAY!
(God Leads You In An Unending Victory Parade)
TO THE BIBLE 2 Corinthians 2:14 MSG
“And I got it, thank God! In the Messiah, in Christ, God leads us from place to place in one perpetual victory parade. Through us, he brings knowledge of Christ. Everywhere we go, people breathe in the exquisite fragrance.”
LET’S TALK
Jesus already defeated Satan and the cohorts of darkness on your behalf. In Luke 10:18-19, He said, “…I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven….” The Apostle Paul relayed a graphic illustration of the victory of Jesus over Satan and the cohorts of hell: “Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it” (Colossians 2:15). The Lord Jesus dispossessed Satan of his authority, rendered him powerless and gave us the victory! Therefore, Satan doesn’t have any right over the world today, neither does he have the power to run your life.
All you have to do is enforce your victory through the fight of faith. 1 Timothy 6:12 says, “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.” This isn’t a fight with the devil, your flesh or the world; rather, it’s maintaining your victory in Christ. In John 16:33 Jesus said, “…In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Galatians 5:24 says, “And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” This means you don’t have to try to overcome the world or the flesh; rather, you’re to live beyond the flesh by walking in the light of God’s Word, in spite of sensory evidence.
Appropriate, and lay hold of, the victories Jesus already achieved and accomplished for you through your faith-filled declarations. It may be with your schoolwork, in your family, finances or health; refuse to accept failure or defeat. Keep declaring your victory.

Speak
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I’m what God says I am; a victor, an overcomer and more than a conqueror! No weapon formed against me shall prosper because the greater One lives in me! I’m filled with His glory, grace, and might. Hallelujah.
