How to gain victory in your life ? Inquire of the Lord for wisdom and strategy.
Thank you @Pure Glory for this reminder.
Life would be so much easier if we learnt true dependence on God. Every day we should ask Him for wisdom and strategy to successfully navigate our world.
1John 5:4 NKJV
[4] For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
A victorious Christian life is a way of life, a life of consistent victory, it is about thriving in the face of difficulties and challenging situations. With the existing complexities, hardships of the current world, a victorious life is a much cherished way of life. And the good news is; every Christian, every disciple of Jesus can enjoy this life. First John 5:4 tells us this much……
We are born of God, born of the Word and Spirit, with a spiritual genetics configured to have victory at all times and in all things.
Through faith, accepting God’s Word as true and patterning of lives according to God’s Word we set ourselves up for victory, in every situation, place or time.
God is our Father and every time we go to Him, He is ready to help us. He is always willing to help us sort even the most difficult challenges of life.
What sets a Christian apart to enjoy a life of perpetual victory in a world where everyone is striving to thrive against odds? How is it possible to enjoy a victorious christian life in our current world? This is what this study series is about.
VICTORY is the identity of every child of God. Victorious Christian living should be a way of life for every believer. As believers we should enjoy victory in Christ; overcoming in all things, dominating our world, ruling and reigning in life. First John chapter 5, verse 4 tells us this much, emphasizing that faith is the victory that overcomes the world. In addition to faith, I share other keys to living a life of victory in Christ below…
"For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." I John 5:4
I have drawn from scriptures, 5 keys to living a life of victory in Christ. Faith, being aware of our identity in Christ, having a consciousness of the God who lives in us, walking in love and never giving up on hope.
Here are 5 Keys to Enjoying a Victorious Christian Life -…
You can reference the additional scriptures listed above. They will shade more light on the relationship between faith, love, being God conscious, hope and an acute awareness of one’s identity in Christ.
“Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.” I John 5:1
“Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.” I John 3:1
“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” I John 4:4
“And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.” I John 4:16

Shalom!
In all my interactions and relationships today, I manifest the fruit of the spirit of God in me.
Contrary to hope, Abraham believed in hope; that is, when there was nothing to hope for, Abraham had hope God’s promise would come through. Abraham had absolutely no reason to hope; he was old, his body was weak, his sexuality and sexual drive was as good as gone. Sarah was also weak, have you imagined how the womb of an 89year old woman could hold a baby?
Sadly, what this also means is that if I do not act in faith I may never reveal and experience the righteousness of God which is always available to me. We are unlikely to experience God’s integrity/ without faith. You cannot have victory without faith. There is an opportunity today to uncover the faithfulness/righteousness/wholeness of God in your work, health, academics, business, ministry, family, etc. Take God by His Word, believe and you will see the glory of God manifested.
So faith is for every split second, every second, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every year, every time.
Faith reveals the righteousness of God and the faith to reveal the righteousness of God comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. Without the Word, there will be no stimulus to act in faith and without acting in faith, the righteousness/faithfulness/wholeness of God cannot be experienced.
According to Romans 13:8, love is a debt we owe every man. And every man really do mean every man without exception. You know, it is a lot easier to reciprocate love when you feel loved. But sometimes we encounter people who are not so nice and who ordinarily should fit into an ‘unlovable’ group, but God said to love every man.
Jesus identified 4 groups of possible enemies in Matthew 5: 43-48. These are people we would ordinarily not want to love…
