Victory Daily Devotional

KINGDOM OF HIS SON Colossians 1:12-18 Devotional:- “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love” (V. 13) NKJV.        Quite a great number of people who have given their lives to Christ still have the influence of the devil or darkness upon them. This has brought so much confusion to the lives of many people and plunged them back into darkness. Though they gave their lives to Christ, they discover they still dream of the old things. They find out that the old devil still stops them.

ON THE ROCK Psalms 18:1-3 Devotional:- “The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold” (V. 2) NKJV.      One of the places of natural beauty on the earth is on the rock. When people stand on the rock, the rock itself creates a sense of firm foundation for their standing. Do you know that there are beautiful and cool waters on the rock? You can never compare the breeze on a rock to the one in a valley. When a man stands on the rock, he has a wider scope of life. He sees wider space on the earth at a glance. He stands more highly above many things. This is why the Bible compares the believer’s life to a life on the rock (Matthew 5:14-16).

SITED TOGETHER  Ephesians 2:1-7 Devotional:- “and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (V. 6) NKJV.      Since we no longer belong to the world by our new birth, our supernatural level is placed exactly where Jesus Christ is. He prayed to the Father before He left the earth that we should be permitted to be where He is (John 17:24). And today He is seated at the right hand of the Father, which is the place of the Father’s power and authority.

HIDDEN WITH CHRIST Colossians 3:1-4 Devotional:- “For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God” (v.3) NKJV      There are too many things the devil is using to cause fear in the lives of people in the world. This happens often through the bad news of evil occurrences and all forms of calamity that befall people all over the world. All of these are strategies of the devil to make people live in fear instead of living by faith.

WHERE I AM John 17:21-25 Devotional:- "Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world” (V. 24) NKJV.      There are so many things going on in the world. Terrible events are happening daily. To some people it is news. This is because of where they are located. Those on the event site are having trouble, and those who are not but only hear the news are not totally out of the trouble. They also live daily in fear of their turn of evil.

HEAVENLY PLACES Ephesians 1:16-23 Devotional:- “which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places” (V. 20) NKJV    The Bible says that we are seated in heavenly places, which means we are far above the reach of the forces of the earth. This simply talks about your status in Christ. This emphasizes the gap that exists between you and the forces that rule the earth. We all can understand that heaven is extremely far above the earth, and so is your level to the forces of the earth.

NEW COVENANT Luke 22:15-20 Devotional:- “Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you” (V. 20) NKJV.      Believers in Christ are the people of the new covenant. They enjoy the new order of covenant with God. That is why the Bible has two parts. The Old and the New Testament. The word testament means covenant. Under the old covenant, which is of the law, humanity has been brought under a great yoke. That is why God saw it as faulty, and organized to establish the new (Hebrews 8:8). Under the old covenant, the devil has taken so much advantage of many people. Part of the Old Testament is that any soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel 18:4). Whoever sins is of the devil (1 John 3:8). Under this, the devil has caged the multitude into covenant bondages, which gave him legal right. So he has deceived so many people into covenant bondage ignorantly when they come to request anything from him.

UNCOMMON AFFLUENCE Isaiah 61:1-11 Devotional:- “But you shall be named the priests of the LORD, They shall call you the servants of our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, And in their glory you shall boast” (V.6) NKJV.    God’s agenda for the Last Day saints is to put us in control of great wealth. It is part of the end-time agenda of God. The purpose is to make the church strong financially and to carry the gospel of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. God is going to restore great wealth to the saints who are walking with Him in the covenant (Psalms 50:5). This is what God was prophetically declaring in Joel 2:21-26.

SPIRITUAL BLESSING Ephesians 1:2-7 Devotional:- “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ” (V.3) NKJV      The essence of our redemption is to deliver us from earthly doom and give us heavenly dews and glory. We are redeemed to make the earth like heaven. God has tried in the past to do this by creating places like heaven for his children on earth, the Garden of Eden. The manipulation of the devil has made man so destructive. You need to know that what is in us is heavenly (2 Corinthians 4:7).
