John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
Jesus came and died to set us free.
He died to set us free from sin, but He also died to set us free from so much more. He wants us to be free from shame and guilt. He wants us to be free from condemnation and anxiety.
He wants us to be free from addictions and oppression. And He wants us to be free from bondage of all kinds.
Way too many of us limp through life, wondering what our purpose is or why we’re in the situation we’re in. And many times we tend to pull back from God because we don’t see things changing in our lives.
But this isn’t what God wants for us. He wants us to live lives of victory!
Victory doesn’t necessarily mean that we won’t have troubles, but it means that we have strength, in Christ, to push through those trials and not let them beat us down while we work through them.
The key to this is to draw near to God and let Him help us through them, so we don’t end up frazzled and worn out from the stress of worrying.
Matthew 6:34 (NKJV) 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
So as life pushes on you and tries to bury you in worries, push back and speak the words of Jesus to the enemy and claim them over your life.
Victory is ours. We just need to reach out and claim it, in the name of Jesus.
