Overwhelming Victory

DEC 07, 2023

Today’s Scripture

Romans 8:37, NLT 

No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. 

Today’s Word

During the thirteen years between when Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers to when he was made prime minister of Egypt, practically every day he suffered and had to fight having a victim mentality. Thoughts would whisper, “You keep doing the right thing and yet you’re the victim of others’ wrongs.” But Joseph’s attitude was: “I refuse to be a victim of my brothers, of the slave traders, of Potiphar’s wife whose lie sent me to prison, of the butler who forgot about me after I helped him. They tried to harm me, but I know God means it for my good.” 

Despite what people do and say, nobody can force you to have a victim mentality. You have to give permission to become a victim. “I’m at a disadvantage. I’m going to feel sorry for myself. This bad break has stopped my future.” Don’t allow that victim mentality to enter your thinking. You have to dig down deep and say, “No, thanks. Despite what’s been done, I am going to see an overwhelming victory through Christ Jesus.” 

Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You for the promise of an overwhelming victory through Jesus. Thank You for Your love and that I am Your child, a victor and not a victim of circumstances. I’m going to stay in peace knowing that no obstacle that stands in my way can stop Your plan. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
