Victory by the Hands of the Almighty
Prayers 1. Father, let your powerful hands deliver my much-needed victory to me in the name of Jesus.
It is my prayer that: The victory you need to shine and fulfill destiny may God give to you in the name of Jesus.
Text: 1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!
We have previously seen some of the things that the hands of the wicked can do. These are manly to steal, kill and destroy good things and God’s people. The hands of the wicked will not prevail over you and yours in Jesus’ name. We have also seen, last week, the Hands of the Almighty and we saw that the Hands of the Almighty is superior to and is more powerful than the hands of the wicked. We noted that: 1. The hand of God can bring discomfort to your adversaries. 2. God can build what you need. 3. The Lord upholds with His hand and orders the steps of the righteous. 4. God made you and He can, and He will sustain you by His hands. 5. God’s hands afflict your enemies until they restore what they have stolen and destroys their idols and evil powers. 6. God’s hands can stop the enemy from invading your land (health, wealth, home, family, academics, career, ministry etc.). 7. God’s hands can deliver you from terrible oppression, bondage, and captivity. 8. God’s words will always come to pass. 9. God’s hands can heal, perform signs and wonders, and save souls.
Today we will be reviewing how the Mighty Hands of the Almighty will give you victory. May victory be yours in every area of challenge or where you and yours are struggling in the name of Jesus.
What is the Meaning of Victory? Victory has been defined as: · the overcoming of an enemy or antagonist. · achievement of mastery or success in a struggle or endeavor against odds or difficulties. · an act of defeating an enemy or opponent in a battle, game, or other competition. While the arm of flesh cannot deliver long lasting eternal victory, the everlasting, eternal, powerful and mighty hands of God can and will deliver the victory you need in the name of Jesus.
Components of Obtaining Victory by the Hands of the Almighty 1. Faith delivers our victory into our hands: The Bible states in 1 John 5:3For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. As long as you have been born by God, born again, you are prepared and destined to be an overcomer.
What is faith and how do you acquire or increase your faith? Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1) and faith comes by hearing, listening to and obeying the Word of God. So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 5:17) May God deliver your victory into your hands through faith in Jesus’ name.
2. Jesus Christ, our Saviour gives us eternal victory over sin, death, and the grave: 1 Corinthians 15 says: 54When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable and the mortal with immortality,g then the saying that is written will come to pass: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”h 55“Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?”i 56The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ! May God grant you and yours eternal victory over sin, death, and the grave in Jesus’ name.
3. Victory comes from the Lord. A horse is prepared for the day of battle, but victory comes from the LORD. (Proverbs 21:31) May the victory that comes from the Lord be yours in the name of Jesus.
4. Stay in the path of justice, truth, and humility to let God give you victory: In your majesty ride forth victoriously in the cause of truth, humility, and justice; let your right hand achieve awesome deeds. (Psalm 45:4)
5. God gives victory with joy as He answers your prayers. May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory and raise a victory banner in the name of our God. May the LORD answer all your prayers. (Psalm 20:5) May God answer your prayers, give you victory and multiply your joy in Jesus’ name.
6. It is God who decrees (commands, establishes) victories for His People You are my King and my God, who decrees victories for Jacob. (Psalm 44:4) When God decrees a thing, it must surely come to pass. May God decree your victory in Jesus’ name.
7. God is your defence: For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king. (Psalm 89:18) When God is the One defending you, you have nothing to fear, you are protected. May God continually be your defence in Jesus’ name.
8. God works Salvation: For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth. (Psalm 74:12)
It is God’s mercy that brings salvation. May the salvation you need, the salvation your family members need, the salvation your friends and acquaintances need come to all of you in the name of Jesus.
9. Our God is the Chief Counsellor and gives victory through wise counsel and guidance: Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers. (Proverbs 24:6) The counsel you need to be victorious in all of life’s situations, confrontations, and battles, may it come your way in Jesus’ name. May you receive it in the name of Jesus and may you have victory through wise counsel and guidance in Jesus’ name.
10. God can make you a spiritual mighty man, to defeat adversaries that are against you: In 1 Chronicles 11, the Bible says: 10Now these are the chiefs of David’s mighty men, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel. 11This is an account of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam, a Hachmonite, was chief of the three.a He wielded his spear against 300 whom he killed at one time. 12And next to him among the three mighty men was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite. 13He was with David at Pas-dammim when the Philistines were gathered there for battle. There was a plot of ground full of barley, and the men fled from the Philistines. 14But he took hisb stand in the midst of the plot and defended it and killed the Philistines. And the LORD saved them by a great victory. May God make you a mighty man and deliver your much needed victories into your hands in Jesus’ name.
11. God can give you victory everywhere you go: He put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The LORD gave David victory wherever he went. (1 Chronicles 18:13). David experienced several pains, being pursued by adversaries etc. At the end of it all, God gave him victory everywhere he went. May God, give you victory everywhere you go in Jesus’ name.
12. You will receive and sing a new song, a song of victory: Sing a new song to the LORD, for he has done wonderful deeds. His right hand has won a mighty victory; his holy arm has shown his saving power! (Psalm 98:1) May you have a new song to sing, a song of victory in the name of Jesus.
To obtain victory by the hands of God involves: · Being born again (Acts 4:12, Romans 10:9-10)
· Being a student of the Bible (Joshua 1:8, 2 Timothy 2:15)
· Applying your faith (Romans 5:17, Hebrews 11:1)
