Walking In Victory

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—even our faith. - 1 John 5:4-5

It is one thing to receive freedom and deliverance. It is another thing to walk in victory.

Don’t be unprepared for Satan’s counterattack. You will face opposition and temptations when you leave here. Satan’s goal is to retake the ground he lost.

You must determine to make decisions before you leave that will enable you to maintain the victory you have gained.

How Do We Walk in Victory?

Knowing Who You Are

(Rom. 6:11). We must know who we are in Christ and what we have received in Him. We reckon, or see, ourselves as alive to God—alive to the realm of God—which includes seeing that we are fully accepted and enjoyed by God, empowered to use Jesus’ authority, and indwelt by the Spirit.

The Spirit’s peace resides in our spirit from the very day that we are born again (Gal. 5:22). We access His peace by acknowledging it and thanking Him for it. The simple act of thanking the Spirit for His peace in our spirit releases it to our soul and our emotions.

Knowing Who we are in Christ is the first step to walking in Victory. Romans 6 tells us how to access, or experience, the power, favor, and blessings of God, which are freely available to us because of what Jesus did on the cross. It is the most practical chapter in the Bible on walking in victory over sin.

Transformation in our life begins by knowing who we are in Christ—seeing ourselves the way God sees us in Christ. God has abundant grace to pour out on our lives, but He requires us to cooperate with His grace. He will not do our part, and we cannot do His part.

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive. When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...
