Live a spiritual life: life is spiritual, being a Christian means having relationship with God. It began with believing and confessing Jesus Chirst as the Lord of your life. With the heart you believed unto righteousness, with the mouth you confessed unto salvation. To win any battle of life, you must believe what God said about that issue in your heart and confess it with your mouth. Apply this spiritual formula in all issues of life and you will always win.
You need oil: David was anointed with oil & he became king. Anything you are going for has an oil. Oil of marriage, oil of business. Without oil you, there is struggle.
“But my horn shall thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil” Psalm 92:10
To be exalted above your peers you need fresh oil. Especially the oil of joy and gladness. Jesus Christ was anointed with this oil.
“Thou lovest righteousness, and hateth wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows” Psalm 45:7
It is also written in Isaiah 12:3
“Therefore with joy shall ye draw out of the wells of salvation”. A merry heart will always have a continual feast. Rejoice always in the Lord.
Avoid distractions: Anytime you are fighting battle Satan will position distraction to you.(1sam 17:28). The first person that distracted David before Goliath is his eldest brother. Learn to tactfully avoid distractions. It detracts destiny. Focus on the goal before you. Don’t look here and there. Look straightforward before you and you will win.
Take God as your last resort: when God is your last resort he will be your best result.
In other words, let God be your first and only resort. For God fights on behalf of those who trust Him, who hope in His mercy. Never take the battles of life into your hands. Commit it to God and take orders from Him on your courses of action. He is your commanding officer. He never loses any battle.
Avoid emergency weapon(1sam17:38-40) : No trial in your life will make you go outside God for solution, some go to church today in Sunday, by Monday they look for alternatives. Hurry leads to mistakes says the Holy writ. Be patient as God fights for you. Hold your peace. The man of war is at work. The battles of life are won by the persistent. As seen in the story of the unjust ruler and the widow in Luke 18
Declare the victory from the beginning
We belong to a kingdom where we call forth the things that are not as though they are and they come to be. Never wait for any evidence to declare your victory. Your words are evidencial enough to turn any battle to your favor. Declare your victory at the onset of any battle. Don’t live it to chance or circumstance. Live a decisive life. Decide the outcome of your life.
Conquer in Secret
When you have decided the outcome of any battle, you follow it up in the secret place of prayer and listening to God for direction. Champions in life are men and women of the secret place. Fortify your fellowship with God in the secret place. Let the Holy Spirit guide you into your battle strategy. Conquer in the secret and it will just be an easy manifestation in the physical realm. May God’s grace be multiplied to you to always win the battles of life and lay the crowns at the feet of the master on that glorious day in Jesus name, Amen
