*Should we go through challenges as Christians?*
*1 Peter 4:12-13*
Beloved friends, if life gets extremely difficult, with many tests, don’t be bewildered as though something strange were overwhelming you. [13] Instead, continue to rejoice, for you, in a measure, have shared in the sufferings of the Anointed One so that you can share in the revelation of his glory and celebrate with even greater gladness!
Should we go through challenges as Christians, or should we just live an easy life? It is God’s will for us to live a victorious life. Victory does not mean you had no challenges; it simply means that no obstacle could make you stumble. It means you won the battle. It means you came out of the fire unharmed. It means you conquered your Goliath. It is not necessarily God who puts you through these challenges but it is satan who is attacking you, but thanks be to God who makes all things work together for our good.
*Declarations.*
I am victorious.
Nothing can get me down.
Be aware that Christianity is not a problematic or a problem-free life, but it is a life of Victory.
Keep in mind that victory is the reward for conquering a battle.
You don’t have to fear the battles of life, because the greater one lives in you.
Use your God given authority to successfully navigate through the challenges life brings your way.
Take some time in earnest prayer right now and settle your victory over every battle..
*Shalom* 🙏
