THE SECRET OF VICTORY 1


THE SECRET OF VICTORY 1
A secret is a knowledge that is hidden. The word victory implies an instance of having won a competition or battle. Every man on earth has a battle to fight. This life is not a bed of roses; challenges will appear, confrontations will rise, difficulties will show up, storms will rage. John 16 vs. 33: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In this world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. CHRIST told us He has overcome the world. Battles, challenges, confrontations makes a man weary. It saps a man’s strength. A man’s energy and wisdom will fail him at the battle field of life. A man trusting in chariot and horses will be knocked down in the battle field of life. Pharaoh and his men trusted in their chariots and horses; but they ended up in the Red sea. The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 20 vs. 7: some trust in chariots and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the LORD our GOD. Only GOD can win every battles of life. Only HE is indomitable in the battle field of life. The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 24 vs. 7-8: Lift up your heads, O you gates and be you lifted up; you everlasting doors and the king of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD Strong and Mighty, the LORD Mighty in battle. He told the Israelites through Moses in Exodus 14 vs. 14: The LORD shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace. Only HE can fight for you, only HE can fight against your adversaries. Only HE can make you victorious in the battle field of life. He saves not with sword and spear. That battle is not yours; it’s of the LORD’s. 1 Samuel 17 vs. 47: And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hands. The Israelites’ secret of victory in the battles they faced was GOD. But GOD made their enemies punish them, when they go against his will. That secret of victory is GOD. To be victorious you must know GOD and do his will. To be victorious righteousness must be your watchword. To be victorious your way must please GOD. Proverbs 16 vs.7: When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

                 David said I cannot go with these; for I have not proven them. And he put them off Saul’s armor, helmet of brass upon his head and sword. He had something he has proven, he had something he depended on. This was the secret of his victory against Goliath, he told Goliath; you come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield; but I come to you in the name of the LORD of host, the GOD of the armies of Israel whom you have defiled. 1 Samuel 17 vs. 45-46: Then said David to the Philistine, you come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield; but I come to you  in the name of the LORD of hosts, the GOD of the armies of Israel whom you have defiled. This day will the LORD deliver you into my hand; and I will smite you, and take your head from you; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistine this day to the fowls of the air, and to the wild beast of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a GOD in Israel. There is still a GOD called the Mighty Man in battle, that battle, confrontations, difficulties, challenges, sorrow you are facing is not yours. You can’t fight alone; you have to trust in the name of the LORD. This write up continues tomorrow, kindly share with others if you are being blessed reading these. It is well with us….

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

REMEMBERING WHAT GOD HAS FORGOTTEN.

REMEMBERING WHAT GOD HAS FORGOTTEN Many a time something keeps reminding us of our past guilt. The devil is the accuser of brethren, he is responsible for this. Revelation 12 vs. 10-11: And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation and strength, and the kingdom of our GOD and the power of His CHRIST; for the accuser of our brethren is cast down which accused them before our GOD day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives to death. The devil is responsible for you remembering what GOD has forgotten. You have to tell the devil you overcome him by the blood of the lamb and by your word of testimony. Micah 7 vs. 8: Rejoice not against me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall arise, when I sit in darkness; the LORD shall be a light unto me. The devil will always want to rejoice against you, he will always want your downfall; he will always want you in darkness and not light. Sin and tra...
