Bible Verse of The Day – 8-24-13

2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) For we walk by faith, not by sight.

We do not walk our walk by what we see. We walk our walk by faith in the unseen.

Every step that we take in our walk as a child of God, the Most High King, we take in faith.

When we lift our foot and move it forward, we step believing that when we put our foot down, the ground will be held up by God, our Father.

It is a hard thing sometimes… this faith walk. Our mind can play games with us, trying to trick us into believing only what we can see. But it’s faith that pleases God. So let’s keep pushing forward, even when we can’t see what’s next!

There are many of us today who are pushing so hard… we’re fighting to keep our faith intact. We’ve been hit very hard this year and sometimes it feels like we can’t even catch our next breath.

But God is bigger than our problems. We are bigger than our problems, even if we don’t feel like we are.

We have Christ in us. And in Christ, we are overcomers… more than conquerors. So we should never, ever give up and walk away.

Rise up today, in the name of Jesus, and shake off your fear, your slumber and your doubts. And do whatever it takes to take a step forward. And don’t ever, ever look back.

For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Hold your head high and be blessed in all you do.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-13-13

Revelation 12:11 (NKJV) And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb.

Who is this “him” that they overcame? The enemy of our soul, the devil.

The devil roams the earth, seeking whom he can devour (1 Peter 5:8). Because he came to steal, to kill and to destroy (John 10:10). There is no good in him. He is darkness.

So how do we overcome our most deadly adversary? By the blood of The Lamb and by the word of our testimony!

It’s critical for us to understand that we cannot defeat the devil by natural means. No amount of intellectualism or worldly knowledge can defeat him. But we do have the weapon(s) that we need to overcome him once and for all.

It’s the blood of Jesus. By shedding His blood and giving His life on the cross, Jesus defeated death, hell and the grave once and for all.

And the word of our testimony… what does that mean? It means that we need to be speaking words of life and hope, not death and despair. Our words need to reflect the hope that we have in Jesus. As we speak words of life, we literally drive the enemy back from our presence.

Jesus taught that He came so that we could have life and have it more abundantly. He is and has supplied us with all that we need to have victory in our lives.

We don’t have to live life as a defeated warrior. Let Jesus teach you how to have victory in your life today.
