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 (2 Corinthians
2:14).
When you confessed the Lordship of Jesus
over your life, you were immediately
catapulted into the Kingdom of God’s dear
Son; into a life of triumph. Sadly, many
don’t understand this glorious truth and as
a result, live below their calling. They’re up
today, and down tomorrow; and to them,
"Such is life: you win some, and you lose some." But
that’s not consistent with the life we have in Christ; we
don’t win sometimes, and lose sometimes; we win all the
time! It’s a life of continuous triumph.
Observe our opening verse again; it says, "… thanks be
unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
Christ…"; not sometimes, but always. What a life!
Christianity is not a religion; it’s the life of God lived out
through you; it’s divinity at work in humanity. You can’t
have this mentality about Christianity, and be beaten
down in life. Until you come to know the Christian life
beyond the facade of religion, all you’d have is the
religiosity of Christian principles; and that’s not good
enough.
You need the understanding of your victorious life in
Christ; you need to have the revelation of the
triumphant, exultant life of the supernatural that you’ve
been called to live. Such an understanding will put
springs in your steps. To know that you have the very
nature of God in your human spirit and His pulsating life
in every fibre of your being will change your perception
in life.
As one who’s born again, become conscious of who you
are and what you have in Christ. You’re different from
the rest of the world; you have the God-life, which
makes you one with Him. With that life working in you,
sickness, disease and infirmity of the body shouldn’t
have power over you, likewise sin. Sin is the cause of
sickness, and Romans 6:14 says, "For sin shall not have
dominion over you…." If sin, which is the parent of
sickness, has no power over you anymore, by virtue of
the pulsating, triumphant life in Christ, then sickness,
which is the offspring of sin, shouldn’t have any power
over you. Halleluiah!
