Victory Week: Night 8

The closing night of a week of meetings, and the question is how to keep what you received once they end. The answer is that victory is meant to be a way of living, not a spiritual high followed by a hard Monday. Galatians says stand firm and don’t go back under the yoke; Deuteronomy says you’ll go upward and not downward. There’s straight teaching on the enemy. Know what he’s after, don’t be afraid of him, resist and he flees. And there’s teaching on authority: if God asked you to do something, He has already given you the power to do it, and doubting that is really doubting Him. It closes on the twelve spies: don’t mistake a challenge for a defeat.
