VICTORY IS ASSURED

To have victory is to abide in the presence of the power of God. If we abide in the right place with God & remain there. God can do all things in our lives!

Matthew 3:15-17 (Jesus was being baptized)
15) But Jesus answered & said to him, "Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness" Then he allowed Him.
16) Then Jesus when He had been baptized, came up immediately from the water; & behold, the heavens were opened to Him, & He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove & alighting upon Him.
17) And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

There was a Holy Majestic power that fell on Jesus when He received the Holy Spirit. It actually changed Jesus. There He was anointed with the Power of God. Jesus submitted to the power of God, which is the Holy Spirit. Jesus had more & more power as He submitted to the Holy Spirit. Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness & He became ready for what was ahead of Him.

Matthew 4
Satan Tempts Jesus
1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’
5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
‘ He shall give His angels charge over you,’
and,
‘ In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the LORD your God.’
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.’”
11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry
12 Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee. 13 And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
15 “ The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles:
16 The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light,
And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death
Light has dawned.”
17 From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples
18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 20 They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
21 Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
Jesus Heals a Great Multitude
23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24 Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. 25 Great multitudes followed Him—from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

That empowerment had so much of an affect upon Him that people saw it & flocked to hear Him. As He grew there also became a great blessing in the land.

We must yield to the Holy Spirit as Jesus did & abide there. This will accomplish the purpose of God to yield & submit until our being is saturated with God. To bring knowledge of the truth & of the Gospel for humanity.

Psalms 46:10
Be still, & know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

To live in a tranquility of God, to listen & know He is God. He moves us by His might power of the Holy Spirit. On our part it just takes abiding in God. To listen to Gods voice. To be controlled by the Spirit of God, To hear His voice, to be in that place which brings us LIFE, POWER, & VICTORY.

You will still have to go through things but now you have the Power of the Holy Spirit to go through it. Satan is going to come after you because you are one of God children.
