How To Live Victoriously PDF Download

Ephesians 6:10-20 AMP says "In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [draw your strength from Him and be empowered through your union with Him] and in the power of His [boundless] might. Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places. Therefore, put on the complete armor of God, so that you will be able to [successfully] resist and stand your ground in the evil day [of danger], and having done everything [that the crisis demands], to stand firm [in your place, fully prepared, immovable, victorious]. So stand firm and hold your ground, having [b]tightened the wide band of truth (personal integrity, moral courage) around your waist and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (an upright heart), and having [c]strapped on your feet the gospel of peace in preparation [to face the enemy with firm-footed stability and the readiness produced by the good news]. Above all, lift up the [protective] [d]shield of faith with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. With all prayer and petition pray [with specific requests] at all times [on every occasion and in every season] in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition [interceding in prayer] for all God's people. And pray for me, that words may be given to me when I open my mouth, to proclaim boldly the mystery of the good news [of salvation], for which I am an ambassador in chains. And pray that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly and courageously, as I should." Taking authority means we use every resource available to us given by God to take back our power and take authority over the devil. Taking authority gives us the authority not be or feel powerless. Taking authority allows us to be in full control of our lives and the situations and circumstances surrounding and in our lives and the lives of our loved ones. Taking authority means staying in full control of our ability, our healing, our deliverance, our salvation, our blessings, our past, present and our future. Taking authority gives us the power to command. Taking authority allows us to take control of our lives and keep the control in our hands not in the devil's hands. Taking authority means knowing how to be humble and not haughty, how to serve as well as be served. God gives us power and authority to trample on serpents. God gives us the power to get wealth. God gives us power and authority to heal all manner of sickness and disease. So then why are there so many people possessed by demons? Why are there so many people sick and afflicted? Why are there so many people in lack and living in poverty? Because we haven't taken authority and control. Instead we have allowed Satan to take authority and control over us. We serve God who kills, and I makes alive; who wounds, and heals: and we know that neither is there any God that can be delivered out of His powerful hand. For He lifts up His hand to heaven, and says, He lives for ever." Deuteronomy 32:39-40 KJV God is our master our comforter our friend. Therefore we take authority over the devil and take back our power by commanding the devil to obey.
