All in Victory in Jesus

The True Victor, and the Aroma of Christ.

Do we lay awake at night and determine the strategy we will employ tomorrow? Do we make battle plans against the forces of darkness, or arrange our spiritual maneuvers to achieve victory and holiness? If so, then woe are we, because the seas we sail, and the battles we fight, are not ours. We are just sailors aboard the vessel of God, and we are but soldiers in the army of the King. We sail for him and do battle at His command. When we triumph over the enemy the victory belongs to Jesus Christ alone... we are simply following His leadership

Peace and Victory; this is the view from our Cross

After becoming Christians do we still feel threatened by the world? Do we allow what is in the world to have any remnant of undefeated rule over us? As victors in Christ, what more can the world do to us that we mustn’t grant it the power to do? On the cross Jesus overcame the world, and as He did, we overcame it as well. So now we must ask ourselves... are we living out the victorious life that has already been won for us? Do we realize that death has no dominion over us, and that fear is banished from us by the love of God?
