From Defeat To Victory

FIRST LOVE RECOVERY MINISTRIES
FROM DEFEAT TO VICTORY
1 Chronicles 5(KJV)
verse 25 And they transgressed against the God of their fathers, and went a whoring after the gods of the people of the land, whom God destroyed before them.
verse 26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria, and he carried them away, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites,and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, unto this day.
1 Corinthians 10(KJV)
verse 11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
At one time or the other, every Christian has experienced defeat but the wise learn from their defeats, and then see them turned into victories! From the first text above we can see that when God's covenant people experience defeat, they enter into a level or degree or type of captivity. Captivity is a state in which God's people come under the heavy yoke of satanic ...
... oppression. In this article, we shall look for the way out of such an embarrassing situation.
Obadiah 1(KJV)
verse 17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
‘Mount Zion' is the place that God has ordained deliverance for His covenant people. Deliverance is the divine process of enforcing the victory of Christ on the cross (Col.2:15) so as to take away the captivity of God's people. This process could appear to be sudden or gradual and it could seem silent or dramatic. The divine agency of deliverance is the anointing that breaks the yoke of the oppressor (Isa. 10:27). The anointing flows in the light of the truth that sets us free (John 8:32).
Deliverance of God's people leads to restoration of:-
* Who they are in Christ- ‘and there shall be holiness' (1 Peter 1:15-16;2:9)-a holy nation unto the Lord.
* What they have in Christ-‘ and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions' (1 John 4:4,5:4-5)-all things that describe victory.
To experience deliverance, one may have to repent from some specific sin. Where one is not yet a real Christian, one should repent of all one's sins and humbly receive Jesus Christ as one's personal Lord and Saviour.
In some other cases, one may need spiritual counseling from a mature Christian.
There are instances in which one has to renounce any involvement with the realm of the occult as well as any lie of the devil that one might have embraced. This demonic lie could be ‘another gospel' (Gal. 1:6,
2 Cor.11:4) or some ungodly and unscriptural human tradition, religion, or philosophy (Col. 2: 8, 18).
However bad or long the captivity has been the Lord is more than able to deliver because He is the God of all flesh and nothing is too hard for Him!
Psalm 126(KJV)
verse 1 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
