"We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; (2 Corinthians 4:8-9).
When I think of having Victory in Christ, my mind always wanders back to the apostle Paul. Here's a man who, by his actions and life, can truly sing "Victory For Me." He certainly knew adversity at its worst (2 Cor 11:23-28), but also knew that circumstances need never threaten the joy and victory of the believer.(Romans 8:35-37)
How then may we experience victory, in this troubled world, you might ask (Ecclesiastes 7:8-9)
I once knew a preacher who would often quote his favorite saying, " I know about that sweet-by-and-by, but what about the nasty now-and-now".
Even though we may be living in turbulent times, the antidote for living a peaceful life is no different than in Bible times. (Hebrews 13:8)
So, how is it done ? How can we be happy in Jesus ? Just like the old hymn tells us. Just "Trust and Obey". (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Just don't let any trying situation rob you of your victory in Christ.! (Psalm 46:1) Just don't let the Devil have the victory ! (1 Thess 2:18) You see, God knows our every need, even before the situation becomes a reality in our mind. (Psalm 139:1-24) And He has made a way of escape.(Jeremiah 29:11)
Remember, it is to God's will (Hebrews 10:36) for us to have victory in Him. Any less commitment is not really complete victory in Christ Jesus. (1 John 5:4-5)
So. just take God at His word. Just "Trust and Obey". And leave the consequences to God.(James 5:7-8)
- When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will, He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey. - Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey. - Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey. - Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,
But is blessed if we trust and obey. - But we never can prove the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey. - Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.
