Our Victory In Jesus!
As the old saying goes,
“From evildoers come evil deeds.”
1 Samuel 24: 13
We’re living in a world of evildoers and evil deeds,
and it’s very difficult to navigate the times. Though
we live in a fallen world, we must keep ourselves
both holy and happy in the Lord.
That’s not a new challenge. In Revelation 2, the church
of Pergamos was surrounded by evil, for Pergamos was
a place where Satan dwelled. Yet the church held fast to
the Name of Christ.
According to 1 John 5:19, we
are children of God living
in a world controlled by the evil one. Remember Jesus
has overcome the world. He will help us maintain purity
and poise in times like these.
Sometimes we think no one notices our efforts and trials,
but God does. He makes
us to be “more than conquerors”
always leading us in triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14) and giving
us the victory (1 Corinthians 15:57).
Pray today for God’s guidance in navigating the sinful
culture of the world around us. Claim the victory and
God will strengthen you for victory over an evil world.
"He loved me ‘ere I knew Him and all
my love is due Him. He plunged me
to victory beneath the cleansing
flood."
