Jesus Is Victor! By Nanyamka Boyer
Good day my beloved brothers and sisters in our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. It is my prayer that this day finds you well, on fire with and for the Lord, full of joy and strength in the Lord. For remember that it is the joy of the Lord that is our strength, as it is written in Nehemiah 8:10 "Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our LORD: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength."
For it is the strength of the Lord that enables us to go forward in life, resist the devil, keep His commandments and what enables us to live, move and have our being in Him, through the Holy Spirit. As it is written in Acts, by the Apostle Paul in Acts 17:28 "For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring." So that we can live, serve Him, and also accomplish our daily tasks.
So if you are lacking His joy, go to Him, spend time with Him praising and worshipping Him, for who He is and for what He has done and continues to do for you daily in your life, with songs that are all about Him, that draw you closer to Him, so you can be filled a new to overflowing with His Holy Spirit. And receive from Him, His joy, His peace, His courage, power, boldness and might, and all you could ever need to enable you to go on, live in this world and to serve Him. For as it is written in Psalm 16:11 "Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasure for evermore."
On this day let us remember that our Lord Jesus Christ, is victor and is the victor in this world and that just as He overcame the devil and this world, so will we if we keep abiding in Him daily. For it is written in John 16:33 "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
So if we stay submitted to Him, we will then be able to say at the last day, what our beloved John the Apostle says in Revelation 12:11 "And they overcame him (the devil) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death."
The Lord is also victor or is victorious all over again, when we let Him fight for us our battles and let Him give us the victory freely, as it is written in 2 Chronicles 20:15-17 "And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou King Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's." And as we let Him win our battles for us, He is glorified all over again at conquering the devil for us and then more unbelievers have the chance to believe in Him, as they hear the gospel preached unto them and therefore get saved. And we His saints also continue to grow in faith, as His victory or the victory that He has freely given to us, becomes another testimony in our lives of His goodness and mercies upon our lives. For remember that people watch us and therefore learn by our examples, whether those examples are good or evil.
So let us glorify the Lord and let Him once again win the victory for us, as He did on the cross 2,000 years ago, when we obey Him, by the keeping of His commandments, by being doers of His Word and not hearers only, as we are commanded in His Word to do in James 1:22-25 "Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed." And He is also glorified when we walk in and with His love toward our fellow man and let Him fight and overcome our battles. For remember that we represent Him in all things in this world, as His beloved people, holy Bride and Church!
So it is the Lord's prayer and mine that your life and my life will glorify Him, so that we will make it and so that He can win more souls in this battle of souls against the devil and more souls can make it to heaven, have everlasting life from the moment of their salvation and not perish in a burning hell throughout eternity! Remember that the Lord died for all of the souls of men, including the souls of our enemies, so we can all make it to heaven!
So as the Lord has just reminded me to give unto you, what He says and commands us in Matthew 5:15 "Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." So let us daily do, so that He is magnified or glorified and be victorious once again against our enemy Satan! We who are parents do good things for our children out of our love for them, so let us also do good for the Lord and toward the Lord, out of our love and faith in Him!
Go with God and always remember that He alone is worthy of all your praise, worship, obedience, admiration, relationship and commitment. And that your laying down of your life for Him, whether spiritually or physically, is not in vain! So you are not and will never be making a mistake by following Him.
For with God, our Blessed Savior and Lord, we will always benefit from Him, in and from His blessings. Blessed be His holy name! Remember Psalm 103.
