“Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place” 2 Corinthians 2:14, NKJV.

If you are victorious, that means someone is defeated. If you win, someone has lost. Every time you boldly acknowledge your victory in Christ, the enemy is reminded he is defeated, and his tactics flee in every direction. The Bible tells us, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.” Who are the redeemed? Those who have been purchased with the precious blood of Jesus. You have been bought back and sitted in heavenly places of dominion with Christ. You are victorious because Jesus is.

You may not feel like a winner, and your situation may not look at all victorious, but neither did Jesus when He was on that Cross. It appeared to be over. Yet, Jesus rose in victory, and so will you! The door will open, and the favor will come. The Holy Spirit will give clarity, and the wisdom you need will be heard. Rejoice now not in the facts you see but in the prevailing truth you have. You are victorious!

Prayer: Father God, thank you for my victory in Christ. My situation may not look like I’ve won anything, but I choose not to go by what I see or don’t see. I trust the victory You’ve given me through Christ, and I decide to walk in it no matter how I feel. I take on the mind of Christ and declare I have victory. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
