When it comes to living victoriously, we cannot do it by ourselves. Thankfully, it is not dependent on us.
“Thanks be to God He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ” -1 Corinthians 15:57
Our victory is not in and of ourselves or anything we can accomplish on our own. It comes through Jesus because only He can conquer death, sin, sickness, and darkness.
Living victoriously begins and ends with Jesus. There is no victory without Jesus because, through Him and His sacrifice, He gives us the power and strength to overcome whatever is trying to defeat us.
When Jesus walked the earth, He lived a victorious life. He was victorious over sickness, nature, demons, and death itself. It is because of His victory that we can live in victory. But is doesn’t mean that life won’t be hard, or that we won’t stumble and even fall from time to time.
Jesus showed us what true victory looks nothing like this world defines victory. Jesus tells us that victory lies in being humble. True humility means that we never think of ourselves as greater than God, but instead as His obedient and lowly servant. Victory is reached through pursuing a childlike faith.
Living in victory means living with joy the responsibilities God has given us, no matter how big or small they appear to be in a given moment.
