Romans 8:17 NKJV
“and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
Romans 8:17 NKJV
Our new life in Christ comes with a package that is compacted with the resources that we need to live a victorious life here on earth.
The moment we become children of God, we legally have access to all of our Father’s inheritance.
The battle is not about winning the fight. It is about holding on to God’s truth. The enemy is defeated because of the promises we have in God.
Without the promises of God, the enemy has access to manipulate, lie and steal our victory.
God’s victory is concealed in His promises. If we have God’s promises, we have the victory.
The promises of God cause God’s abundance to flow through our lives.
The suffering here mainly is about not losing our grip on His truth. It is about holding on to the truth in the midst of lies through the systems of the world that want to control us.
The end result of our faith is victory. Faith in Jesus who is our victory and our promise.
Therefore, if we hold on till the end, and do not give in to the voice of the enemy, then we will arrive as God has promised.
We are a joint heir.
We are no longer two but one in Christ through His Spirit. Therefore, we hold on to one truth and that is NOT our opinion but HIS WORD.
Let us hold on to the truth of God’s word no matter how hard the storms of life may be and stand victorious at the end in Christ Jesus.
Blessings
Ps Ambrose
