Victory: an act of defeating an enemy or opponent in a battle, game, or other competition. The devil acts like it is STILL a game; or a competition. I could offer you our Testimony, but we will rather lift the Name of Jesus. Because, we don’t play games with Satan. We are NEITHER in a competition with him either. We fight the spiritual battles to win; BUT the Victory is already won by Jesus!

Victory is in Jesus! By, Karen Rowe
Romans 1:16 King James Version (KJV)
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Ephesians 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.…
God is a God of Redemption, Correction & Transformation! I heard the Word Salvation this morning too. Read also: Philippians 2 Have the Attitude of Christ!
Children of the Light, if you have a ministry, then this is for you! Our spiritual heart’s SPIRITUAL mission is to bring Heaven to people. Yet … how and why does GOD SET limits on how far we can go with SOME?
Be the Light ♡ BUT DID THEY TAKE A STEP TOWARD JESUS?
ASK for discernment, PRAY continuously, SEEK spiritual discernment in ALL things you do & release ALL & ALL faith IN Jesus Name!
Jesus knows all; TRUST HIM!
What is the Scripture we are lead by the Spirit to look at today?
Ephesians 6:12 New Living Translation (NLT)
12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
The Bible tells, we are in a SPIRITUAL fight; to USE SPIRIT armor; against the EVIL spiritual powers of the unseen world. Evil WANTS TO dim our LIGHT, CAUSE us to stumble & would love to CAUSE a follower of Jesus to fall IF THAT WERE possible!
If there is any forgiving to be done, Jesus already did all the forgiving.
“Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God. Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him. For once you were full of darkness, BUT NOW YOU HAVE LIGHT FROM THE LORD. SO LIVE AS PEOPLE OF LIGHT!
FOR THIS LIGHT WITHIN YOU produces ONLY WHAT IS GOOD & RIGHT & TRUE.
Carefully determine what pleases the Lord.
Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; INSTEAD, EXPOSE them.
It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in SECRET. BUT their evil INTENTIONS WILL BE EXPOSED when the LIGHT shines on them, FOR the LIGHT makes everything VISIBLE.
This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”
So be careful how you live.
Don’t live like fools, BUT LIKE those who are wise. MAKE THE MOST of every OPPORTUNITY in these evil days.
Don’t ACT thoughtlessly, BUT UNDERSTAND what THE LORD WANTS YOU TO DO.
Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. INSTEAD, be FILLED WITH the HOLY SPIRIT, singing psalms & hymns & SPIRITUAL songs among yourselves, & making music TO THE LORD IN YOUR HEARTS.
And give thanks FOR EVERYTHING TO God the Father IN THE NAME of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 5:1-2, 6, 8-20 NLT
Final Thoughts …
IF YOU ARE WONDERING IF THERE IS HOPE FOR YOU? THEN, THE ANSWER IS YES! THIS MESSAGE IS FOR YOU, BECAUSE YOU ARE SEEKING TO LIVE IN THE LIGHT OF JESUS, WHO IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD!
In Closing, there is so much here, yet the final thought the Spirit of the Lord is impressing on my heart of Jesus to say is this … Forgiveness leaves no room in our heart for revenge / nor ill-thoughts toward that person, because something Miraculous happens in Christ! Grace floods our heart!!! Forgiveness comes in us like a flood of living warm oil that frees a soul to let go of any control that UNforgiveness can have over us, a place Satan can steal our Peace, if we are unWise to what is really going on. The Holy Spirit we allow / LET control our heart is vital to our freedoms in Christ. God will give you a method, if need be to Reconcile Peace between believers. But, as far as unbelievers, they must first come to Christ to understand what forgiveness is all about. Release that forgiveness in the rightful Hand of Jesus, where there is nothing left for us to forgive, because Forgiveness has come for whosoever might believe.
Stay Blessed my Friends! Love in Christ is Powerful!
JESUS ALREADY DID IT ALL!
If you don’t know Jesus like this, Come! Come to the ONE who died for your sins, because God desires for you to come home to be with Him! Yes, my friend, there is forgiveness, grace and HOPE! Won’t you receive the Grace Jesus left for you? Peace, Joy, Freedom from sin and when you Receive this, you will never be the same! And, when you Come, STAY! Jesus loves you! We are praying for you; and when you come, please pray for us as well! There is more than what you see in front of you! Look up to the Heaven’s and know God has known you since BEFORE you were even born! God loved you and knew the choices you would make! Jesus loved you, because you needed His Love So … Now, all that is left, is for you to come and receive the Mercy and Grace that God has waiting for you. Believe in your heart that Jesus is Raised from the Dead; and Confess with your mouth, Jesus is your Lord. God will hear you no matter how you say it, because God looks at and knows the value of your heart!
We would love to hear from you!
TILL NEXT TIME!
“GRACE AND PEACE TO YOU FROM GOD OUR FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (2 Corinthians 1:2, NIV).”
Love in Christ,
