Reflection on Victory
Do you look around at the world today and get discouraged? How easy it is to fill our hearts with the worries of this world and lose sight that we serve a God who reigns from a position of victory.
Have you claimed this victory for yourself? Do you know that God has overcome and conquered the power of sin and death? If not, I invite you to claim this victory through His Son, Jesus Christ. He is calling all His people to come spend time in His creation on bended knee under Victory.
If you have made the decision to follow Jesus Christ today and gave your life to Him as you passed through the Gateway — the Cross — calling on the name of Jesus, please share that with someone while you are here. We would love to celebrate with you. Welcome to the family of God.
We invite everyone to take a wooden cross with them. Place it somewhere to remind you that, through Jesus, we stand in a position of Victory.
Scripture
"For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality… then the saying that is written will come true: 'Death has been swallowed up in victory.' 'Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?' The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
— 1 Corinthians 15:54-57
