Welcome to the month of October 2016: Our Month of Victory

Welcome to the month of October 2016: Our Month of Victory

2Cor.2:14; Rom.8:35-39; 2Chron.20:1-25; Ex.15:1-21; Rev.12:7-12 and Ps.67:5-7

 “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. “

Beloved, I welcome you to this great month of October 2016 which the Lord has graciously named to us our month of victory. As I meditated on the prophetic direction of this month, it dawned on me that one of the reasons Jesus Christ came to the earth to die for our sin is to give us victory over our adversary the devil who robbed mankind of his place in the beginning through sin. [Rev.Rev.12:7-12 and Rev.5:9-14] When He died for us, he identified with us in our sin and went to hell on our behalf and took our place in judgement. Three days later, God the judge of the entire universe; saw that the demands of justice was fully met for the human race so that man could be restored to his place of glory; if man would receive the salvation offered by the Lord Jesus Christ by identifying with Him in His death, burial and resurrection through the new birth experience. Thus the statement: “… he is risen…” [Lk.24:5-8] made by the angel to the disciples on the resurrection morning is the statement of our victory and believe me, this victory is meant to be eternal if we remain in him rooted and grounded and established in the faith. See Rm.6:4; Col.2:13 and Col.2:6-7.

In the last scripture quoted above here, it is evident that we actually abound with thanksgiving when we are in the faith. This truth is further strengthened by the response of Moses and the Children of Israel in Exodus 15 when the Lord defeated their enemies on their behalf by drowning them all in the red sea. They burst forth in gratitude and praise.

For us in the Kingdom Heirs Family, many of us have found our individual places in God’s big picture and are experiencing victory in our daily walk with God. I believe this is God awakening us to the consciousness of this truth at a time like this so that we can fully demonstrate our victory and glorify God like never before.

To enable us take full advantage of our victory this month, I believe the Lord would have us go in-depth in our understanding of what it takes to sustain victory. God gave us victory by His grace because we are saved by grace. We must however sustain this victory by gratitude and praise just like the children of Israel were led by Moses to do. Therefore, this month, we are going to be looking at this very misunderstood weapon of victory with intent to understanding the power of gratitude and praise in receiving and sustaining victory.

This month, everything you had struggled with hitherto would bow to you in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ because it is indeed our month of victory. As we saw earlier, victory is our heritage in the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, we cannot lose in the war because our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has taken our place and arisen victorious over death on our behalf. I therefore welcome you to a season of constant celebration because our victory has become eternal in Christ.

Someone reading this may consider it far-fetched because of the series of defeats you have encountered to the point that you seem to have gotten used to being defeated. I have good news for you; you can change your status right away by taking advantage of what Jesus accomplished for you on Calvary’s cross. Should you desire to take advantage of this challenge, please say the following prayer out loud and you will become initiated into the family of God that is in heaven and on earth [Eph.3:14-15]:

Heavenly Father,

Have mercy on me a sinner. Today, I believe that Jesus died for me and you raised Him from the dead for my Justification. I therefore declare that Jesus Christ is my Saviour and Lord and from today, I renounce the fatherhood of Satan and embrace Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for this father in Jesus’ name! Amen.
