Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. (2 Corinthians 2:14).

When we teach about the triumphant life—the prosperity, health, wellness and wholeness that salvation in Christ brought to us, some people think it's too good to be true. They say, "Well, Pastor Chris just promises them a good life, trying to tell them there's no hardship, no persecution, and no problem."

Why should I proclaim the gloom life when the Lord already gave us the victorious life? Even when we go through severe persecutions—He tells us to, "Count it all joy" (James 1:2). Why? It's because nothing and no one, whether in heaven, on earth or under the earth, can work to our disadvantage.

This keeps us joyful and consistent in our praise and appreciation of God's grace and glory in our lives. Think about Job, for example; during a distressing period of agony and affliction in his life, he said, "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him.." (Job 13:15).

Isaiah 43:2 says, "When thou passest through the waters..they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee." The Lord never promised that we wouldn't face challenges, but He assured us that our victories would be inevitable.

1 Corinthians 15:57 says, "But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." It parallels what we read in our opening verse. We're victorious ALWAYS, in every place and in all things.

Study about our Lord Jesus, when He walked the earth; He was victorious in all things. He lived in absolute glory and dominion, and passed the same mentality to His disciples. Once He said to them, "..in the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

In Luke 10:19, He said, "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Hallelujah! What we have in Christ is the transcendent life. That's what we believe; that's what we live, and that's what He sent us to preach and teach.

Prayer
Gracious Father, I thank you for the victorious, glorious, and magnificent life you've called me into; a triumphant life above sickness, disease, poverty, failure and death. I walk worthy of this calling today, fully taking advantage of your divine power at work in me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
