There Is Victory In Knowledge.

When people are not knowledgeable they become a victim. The knowledge of truth is the guarantee for victory in the battles of life. Victory is a function of what you know. You must always go for knowledge and that's the key to everything. Wealth doesn't respect your faith but obedience to certain laws that govern it.

What Do You Need To Know In Order To Enjoy Victory?

1. No challenge is new.

You must understand that what's happening to you has happened before and it is still happening. Someone went through that and God brought them through. If God brought them out, He can bring you out. Elijah felt he was the only one frustrated and the only prophet who hasn't bowed to Baal after she was threatened by Jezebel but God told him He has 7,000 other prophets who hasn't done the same.

You lost your parents? It is easier to feel no one can understand but there are those who lost both parents and are still doing fine. It is not to invalidate your feelings but to let you understand that life deals with everyone and it's easier to enjoy the pity rather than look to God for a way out.

2. God is Faithful.

If you must live in victory, you must realise that God is reliable, un-moveable and unshakeable. When you understand that God doesn't hate you and that God is faithful regardless of what you are going through, it makes it easier for you to live a life of victory with the mental shift you will have. It takes your focus away from the blame game and reposition you to see yourself the way God would see you. It makes you understand that everything works together for your good.

3. You Have The Capacity To Resolve It.

God said He won't allow what we can't handle to come to us, so whatever we are going through, it means we can handle it. God is aware of it and God has weighed it to know we can handle it. If God allowed it, He can use it. The fact that God allowed it is an indication that you will win.

We sometimes feel we cannot handle some things until we keep going. You won't know how fast and quick you can run unless you are chased by something. Situations of life forces us to see our strength most of the time.

4. There Is An Escape Plan.

Beside every visible problem is an invisible solution. The Bible made us understand that God will always make a way of escape for us. As hell creates the problem, Heaven has a solution. However, our eyes need to be opened to see it. Just like God opened the eyes of Elisha's servant in the midst of chaos and Abraham's concubine when she needed water in the wilderness... We sometimes won't see what we should see because we are overwhelmed by emotions. God has already made a way of escape for us as believers but most won't see it because their spiritual eyes are insensitive.

5. Subscribe To Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is the seed that seals your victory in every battle of life. We are used to complaining than giving of thanks.

Prepare for Thanksgiving from your heart. Thankfulness depends on what's in your heart rather than what's in your hand. To honour God is a choice and that choice is yours.

You can also prepare for Thanksgiving with your mouth or your words. You speak so much about the problems but you don't speak about the good things. You don't speak or be thankful with your mouth by sharing it with others what God has done for you. Nobody heard it again when God healed you or came through for you. Advertise what God has done for you. You must not be silent. He who is not faithful in what's little cannot be ushered into something bigger.

You can also prepare for Thanksgiving with your hands. Honour God with the seed of your labour. It starts with the heart and not the head that tries to rationalize everything. Giving is another form of Thanksgiving because only the grateful can be appreciative. It's all about the heart and not about the abundance of what we have.


Thank you for your time.
