Shalom,
We read Psalm 23 in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today and I would encourage you to read this EVERY day fromthe Amplified Bible! Make it your confession of faith over your life! Faith will rise and you will begin to EXPECT and RECEIVE what you declare from God's Word! AMEN! Now I want to share our partner Jerry Savelle's devotional for today, which goes right along with Psalm 23!
VICTORY IS INEVITABLE
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us (Romans 8:35, 37 NKJV).
Do you know that the problem you are facing right now has not taken God by surprise? God is not scratching His head, saying, “I didn’t bank on this happening. How am I going to work this one out?”
When a believer is walking in submission to the Word of God and listening to the Holy Spirit, it is impossible for the devil to win or end up with any advantage in that individual’s life. Why? Because faith is a shield that completely encompasses the believer. Faith and obedience to the Holy Spirit’s instructions make victory inevitable.
It is never God’s will that you be defeated; victory and success are always God’s plan for you. Jesus has already paid the price for your victory when, at the cross, He secured your position in Him as more than a conqueror in every situation.
Although complete and total victory is always God’s perfect will for His people, not all will experience it. Some will remain defeated throughout their lives because they doubt God wants them to have victory.
Only those believers who are absolutely convinced that God offers continual victory in every circumstance and situation will experience the overcoming lifestyle that Jesus has made available for them.
You no longer have to consider defeat as an option. You can walk boldly through this life knowing that, by faith in Jesus and His work on the cross, victory is always inevitable.
Confession: I am more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ and His atoning work done on the cross. It is God’s will that I experience victory in every situation in life. As I walk in faith and obedience to the Holy Spirit’s instructions, victory in inevitable.
AMEN! Now here, to further encourage you in your faith, is Hillsong with "Always Will":
Shalom in Him!
