YOU CAN ACHIEVE THE VICTORIOUS LIFE through living in deep dependence on GOD – PSALM 34 : 17– 18, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7

“YOU CAN ACHIEVE THE VICTORIOUS LIFE through living in deep dependence on GOD. People usually associate victory with success: not falling or stumbling, not making mistakes. But those who are successful in their own strength tend to go their own way, forgetting about GOD. It is through problems and failure, weakness and neediness that you learn to rely on GOD. True dependence is not simply asking The LORD to bless what you have decided to do. It is coming to The LORD with an open mind and heart, inviting GOD to plant HIS desires within you. GOD may infuse within you a dream that seems far beyond your reach. You know that in yourself you cannot achieve such a goal. Thus begins your journey of profound reliance on GOD. It is a faith-walk, taken one step at a time, leaning on The LORD as much as you need. This is not a path of continual success but of multiple failures. However, each failure is followed by a growth spurt, nourished by increased reliance on GOD. Enjoy the blessedness of a victorious life, through deepening your dependence on The LORD.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. PSALM 34 : 17– 18

For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7 (NKJV)

Prayer: Lord I come to you with an open mind and heart, have your way in me. Plant your desires in my heart. Align my heart to yours. Help me to live in deep dependence on you so I can achieve all you have planned in advance for me to do, all for your glory and honor forever and ever. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
