"No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us." (Romans 8:37 NLT)
The preceding verse looks as though we are defeated nonentities. Yes, the world system and Satan will persecute and castigate us, we are not victims.
Jesus secured an overwhelming victory for us at the Cross. We have been lifted far above principalities and powers. There is no basis for fear and this current attitude of defeatism. Actually, the reverse is the case for the devil. He is the one to be afraid because he was defeated. It is important to note that our victory is not temporal but permanent and forever.
ACTION PLAN: We must therefore move away from the beggarly attitude in handling the devil and the world system.
PRAYER: Oh Lord, help to understand in detail the content of my redemption.
