DOMINION OVER ADVERSITY

If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small (Proverbs 24:10).

As Christians, we don’t faint in the day of adversity; we win, we reign, we prevail over every storm. Your strength is not small because the Lord Himself is your strength: “God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect” (2 Samuel 22:33).

1 John 4:4 “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” You hail from God; therefore, your strength is of God: “Not that we are fit (qualified and sufficient in ability) of ourselves to form personal judgments or to claim or count anything as coming from us, but our power and ability and sufficiency are from God” (2 Corinthians 3:5 AMPC).

Can you see why you can never be hamstrung, defeated, or disadvantaged? Stay ever conscious of who you are in Christ, especially of your righteousness in Him. That consciousness produces a divine audacity in the face of adversities; you walk right over them! You consume challenges like bread.

When you know you’re righteous, nothing and no one can intimidate you; be it Satan, guilt, condemnation, or adversities. That’s because you understand that you stand in Christ’s stead and function in His Name. That consciousness gives you the audacity to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, knowing that nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Therefore, dominate sickness, demons and death. When you pray, do so with the confidence and assurance that you’re being heard. Speak with authority. Let your life exude the confidence of divine authority. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for making me righteous and granting me boldness through the Holy Spirit. You’re my strength, and I reign in life by the power of righteousness. I live fearlessly, walking in divine authority and confidence. My words are filled with power, and my actions are full of grace, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
‭‭Romans 8:35-39 KJV
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? [36] As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. [37] Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. [38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

‭‭Romans 5:17 AMPC
For if because of one man’s trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [God’s] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
