You will be continuously and consistently DEFEATED in Christ by your spiritual and physical enemies until you come to personally realize that your enemies are as POWERFUL as your weak CHARACTER you consciously or unconsciously live with every day. That is, as powerful as your ATTITUDES and HABITS that are NOT aligned with the Characters of CHRIST as revealed in the Bible. True!
Likewise, you will be continuously and consistently VICTORIOUS in Christ over your spiritual and physical enemies when you personally realize that your enemies are as POWERLESS as your strong CHARACTER you consciously or unconsciously live with everyday. That is, your ATTITUDES and HABITS that are in line with the Characters of CHRIST as revealed in the Bible. True!
That is why as reveals in the Bible, the first and foremost thing GOD wants to DO in our life as His beloved Children in Christ is NOT bless us but to BUILD (mature) our CHARACTER to line up with that of His Son, Jesus Christ. True! Take note, take heed! (Romans 8:29,30).
That is why Apostle Paul revealed to us that in the sight and sight of God our first and foremost REASONABLE SERVICE to God in Christ in this World is when we PRESENT our body (life), a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. That we achieve this by NOT conforming to the World, but transforming our life by RENEWING our MIND with the WORD of God daily with the help of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within each of us, so that we will be able to daily PROVE what is the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of God per our situation. True! (Romans 12:1,2; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16; Romans 8:14,26-30).
This is because as revealed in the Bible, the Devil (as a spirit and in human clothing) daily WALK about SEEKING whom he will devour. That is, whom he will steal from, kill and destroy. However, the Bible also reveals that we become VICTIMS of his (Satan's or human) plots by our own LUST (our own ungodly and unscriptural drive or desire of the things of the World). True! (1 Peter 5:6-8; James 1:12-15; John 10:10; 1 John 2:15-17).
That is why the Bible counsels us to LAY aside every WEIGHT and SIN that does easily beset (tempt) us and RUN with patience the race that is set before us LOOKING unto JESUS CHRIST, the Author and Finisher of our Faith. (Hebrews 12:1,2).
Do you not know that JESUS CHRIST purposefully came to DESTROY the works of the devil? Therefore, we must NOT allow satanic works (characters) to manifest IN and THROUGH us anymore as people who have being REDEEMED by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Never! Take note, take heed! (1 John 3:1-10).
This is because the Bible makes us to understand that as HE (Jesus Christ) is, so are WE in this World. This means that any of our CHARACTER (attitude or habit) that is short of Christ's own will position us for DEFEAT by our enemies. Likewise, any of our CHARACTER (attitude or habit) that is in line with Christ's own will position us for VICTORY over our enemies. True! Take note, take heed! (1 John 4:17; Galatians 6:16-26).
Some of the weak CHARACTERS (non Christlike characters) you and I must NOT allow the the devil to manifest in and through us and strong CHARACTERS (Christlike characters) you and I must allow Holy Spirit to manifest in and through us daily are listed in Galatians 5:16-26; Romans 1:16-32. Please take time to check them out.
God bless you.
