"Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all" (Psalm 34:19).

Sometimes, in life, there're trials, temptations and difficult days. There can be persecutions, hardships and crises that come unexpectedly. But the Bible says, "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors..." (Romans 8:37). You already conquered before the trouble came; therefore, refuse to be ruffled. Maintain your faith-posture and attitude of dominion.

The Lord Jesus said in John 16:33, "...In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." When He overcame the world, you were in Him, which means you've overcome the world, the adversities therein, and the adversary himself. So, today, any challenge you face, "came to pass."

The Lord Jesus told His disciples at His arrest, "This is your hour, and the power of darkness" (Luke 22:53). But that moment was temporary; it came to pass. Afterwards, the crucified Son of God was out of the grave, and now He reigns forever, leading us in perpetual a victory parade: 2 Corinthians 2:14 MSG, "In the Messiah, in Christ, God leads us from place to place in one perpetual victory parade..." Hallelujah!

When tough days come, don't question yourself or ask, "Did I make a mistake? Why is this happening to me?" Challenges are part of life but they're not a factor because you always win. The circumstances of your life don't define your true character or identity in Christ. The Bible says, "Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" (2 Timothy 3:12).

But in James 1:2, God tells us how to respond; He says, "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations." Why? It's because no persecution, test, trial or challenging situation can overwhelm you. You were born a victor. The Bible says, "When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee" (Isaiah 43:2).

So, remain confident that no matter what happens, all things work together for your good. Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). Be certain that victory is yours always in every situation.

Prayer

Dear Father, thank you for your Word that strengthens and preserves me. No matter the situation, I stand firm in faith, knowing that you've made me a victor in Christ. My confidence is in your unfailing Word, love and power of the Holy Spirit at work in me. I rejoice always, knowing that in Christ I'm forever triumphant, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
