Todays Rhapsody of Realities: The Victorious Life. Tuesday November 4th, 2014 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28). Being born again, you’re born into a spiritual kingdom. This spiritual kingdom is greater than the physical world; it actually rules the physical world. For instance, if you were asking God for a job or a child, promotion, etc., He’ll make it available to you in the spirit-realm. If you can take a hold of it in the realm of the spirit, nothing can stop it from manifesting physically. However, many don’t know how to get things done in the realm of the spirit. The Bible tells us to walk in the spirit (Galatians 5:16). How do you walk in the spirit? It’s by walking in the Word. Jesus said in John 6:63, “…the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” Thus, living the victorious life is living in the Word. This doesn’t mean there’ll be no crises, or that you won’t face any trouble in life; rather, when they come, they’ll be “bread” for you: you’ll walk on in glory. Halleluiah! When you realize this and function accordingly, the victorious life won’t be a mystery but a day-to-day experience for you. There’s more to life than what your physical eyes can see. 1 Corinthians 2:12 says, “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.” As you give attention to God’s Word, the Holy Spirit unveils to your spirit the realities of the victorious life in Christ. This is God’s desire for you. He said through the Apostle Paul: “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth” (3 John 1:2). Living victoriously every day is as simple as saying “Yes” to God’s Word, and acting accordingly. Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for my victorious life in Christ. I make full proof of what Christ did for me, living triumphantly every day, in His Name, and for your glory. I can never be disadvantaged because I live in God’s Word, which produces in, and for me the result of what it says, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. Further Study 1 John 4:4 Psalm 16:6 TLB
