FAITH – THE VICTORY

“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is THE VICTORY that has overcome the world – OUR FAITH” – 1 John 5:4

FAITH – THE VICTORY is the guarantee of the Believer’s Impact in Life: “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is THE VICTORY that has overcome the world – OUR FAITH” (1 Jh.5:4). It takes Faith to stand, walk, live, fight, overcome the world and taste the sweetness of Victory. Deliverance, healing, health, progress, victory, triumph and destiny-fulfilment are hinged on Faith: “The just shall LIVE by FAITH” (Rom.1:17; Heb.10:38). Kingdom-champions rise on the platform of Faith: “For by it the elders obtained a good report” (Heb.11:2). No one can despise faith and obtain a good report in life. Every challenge, circumstance, or situation of life answers to the authority of Faith.

FAITH is a MUST for a meaningful, worthy and victorious living! Faith is a Must if Victory is our dream. Faith is a must if Triumph is our thirst. Faith is a must if Glory is our goal! Faith is a must for the God-kind of Life, just as breathing is a must to keeping physically alive. However, preceding the “must of Faith” is the “must” of the New Birth: “Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘YOU MUST be BORN AGAIN” (Jh.3:7). At the new birth, the Seed of Faith – “the measure of Faith” – is planted in the human spirit (Rom.12:3). Faith belongs to the “Sons” in the Kingdom: “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (Jh.1:12).

It is the Seed of Faith that produces the Fruits and Harvests of Victory. Faith is the Second Must: “...He who comes to God MUST BELIEVE” (Heb.11:6b). Faith is not optional: “The just shall live by faith” – No Faith; No Life. Salvation is the beginning of the exciting adventure of Faith. To be spiritually alive and to maximize God’s Kingdom, Faith is a must. Faith is a Venture that turns life into an Adventure! God calls every one of His children to the Walk of Faith; our progressive advancement in destiny. Faith is the victorious match of Kingdom Champions in tune with the Lord. Real progress in God comes by Faith. Faith is demanded if we’re to take steady strides in our walk with God in all aspects of life: academics, career, family, finances, health, relationships and ministry. Let’s make the quality-decision today, to walk by faith.

Beloved, we need the Faith of God to live the Christian life effectively, to walk worthily, to run the eternal race triumphantly, to live impactfully, above the world’s boisterous winds and stormy waters, to live to please God, to overcome obstacles blocking the way on the royal route to heaven, and to enter the rest of God. The Seed of Faith is already in us, ready to blossom, flourish, and impact our world for God’s Glory!
