The Winning Side
So what should we say about this? If God is for us, no one can stand against us. And God is with us. Romans 8:31 ERV Have you ever watched a basketball game or a soccer game before? If you have, then you'll know what it feels like to be on the winning side. When the team you're supporting has the upper hand over the other team, you feel satisfied and are all smiles about the game. This is the same for us as Christians. We have God on our team and so we are always guaranteed to win. We have every cause to celebrate, because Christ is the owner of victory, thus making us winners. Since the enemy is aware of our secured victory, he does everything within his means to take away the happiness it brings us. Many are the troubles he puts our way to turn away our focus from our victory in the Lord. But the Lord is always ever-present to reassure us of the victory we have in Him. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33. Indeed nothing can separate us from the winning factor in Christ Jesus, our Lord. God loves us so much, even to the extent of giving up His only begotten Son for our sake. It is because of that precious sacrifice that we can boldly beat on our chests and call ourselves winners. We must therefore portray our lives as winners and never give the enemy the slightest chance to trample over us. We ought to celebrate our victory in Christ and always ensure to stay on the winning side! DECLARATION Heavenly Father, I thank You for this wonderful day. I thank You for sending Your only Son to die for my sake to bring me this victory I do not even deserve. Help me to constantly stay under Your love, and to always be on the winning side. Amen!
