“THANKS BE TO ADONAI WHO GIVES US VICTORY THROUGH YESHUA!”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah! So, my dear brothers, stand firm…” (1 Corinthians 15:57-58)

We thank God for giving us the victory as conquerors through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One. So now, beloved ones stand firm, stable, and enduring. Live your lives with an unshakable confidence.

We know that we prosper and excel in every season by serving the Lord because we are assured that our union with the Lord makes our labour productive with the fruit that endures.

Teach me, Lord, to keep sweet and gentle in all the events of life. In disappointments, in thoughtlessness of others, in the insincerity of those I trusted, in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied.

Help me to put myself aside, to think of the happiness of others, to hide my little pains and heartaches, so that I may be the only one to suffer from them.

Teach me to profit from the suffering that comes to me. Help me to use it that it may mellow me, not harden or embitter me, that it may make me broad in my forgiveness, kindness, sympathy, and helpfulness.

Life from the beginning has been in a state of war for all men internally, externally, spiritually, and physically. Satan knew what men would gain with the provision of God through Jesus, hence the war from every angle towards the creation of men and women.

The place of men and women in spiritual warfare has been very unique since the beginning of the world. The warfare is not a physical warfare but a spiritual one.

We wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers against the rulers of the darkness of this world against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).

The agents of the devil and the satanic forces that are engaged in warfare against mankind are not just a thousand but numerous and legions.

Satan planned his strategy against the first family, Adam and Eve. He knocked down Eve but did not knock them out. The first Adam failed, but the second Adam, Christ Jesus won the battle (1 Corinthians 15:57 / 2 Corinthians 2:14).

Because of the failure, judgement of God came upon Adam and Eve and subsequently upon mankind and so the battle continues. But thanks be to God for His mercy He showed on us.

He makes provision for victory over the adversary and strengthens our position in the warfare. Jesus, our Saviour has beaten the devil under our feet, and his head is also bruised.

You are not defeated but victorious in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

Everybody shout a resounding “AMEN & AMEN!”

Shalom and good morning.
