I Cannot Be Defeated And I Will Not Quit

There are words to a song that I hear over and over. I cannot be defeated and I will not quit. Redeemed by the blood of Jesus-----

You and I are redeemed from failure and defeat. We have been delivered out of that realm. I see some of God’s people still lingering in that land. It is time to realize who we are in Christ Jesus. We are not failures. We are not the defeated ones. We are the delivered ones. We are the redeemed ones.

Jesus defeated satan, principalities and powers, and the works of the devil. What is left to defeat? Nothing. Jesus has defeated it all for us.

Oh, yes, personally we have to enforce that defeat of the enemy in our lives. Jesus has even provided for that with the Word of God. When we “feel” like we are defeated, it is a lie. Pick up the Truth and remind the devil who you are. You are the victorious one. You are the healthy one. You are the prosperous one. You are the carefree one. You are the redeemed one.

We must personally see that the enemy is defeated in our lives. We must personally see that the Word works for us. We must personally see that Jesus is for us and not against us. We must personally see that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. We must personally see that we are IN HIM. We must personally see that for ourselves. If it is just a general thing, we will not walk in it. If it is just mentally assenting that the Word of God is true, we will not walk in it.

What is in your heart today? Let the Spirit of God examine you to see where you stand personally in Him and His Word. Let Him do a checkup and help you to move out into the land of more than enough in every area of your life.

This land of more than enough is the most glorious place to be. It is available for everyone who accepts Jesus as Lord of their lives. It is available for all. God is no respecter of persons. What He has made available for one, He has made available for all. It is there for anyone who will dare to believe that it is for them.

I am challenging each of my readers today. I challenge you to believe that this Word of God is true in your life, regardless of whether you see it today or not. Keep on believing and seeing yourself as the victorious one. It will become a consistent truth in your life as you believe it.

Start right now, where you are, regardless of what it looks like in the natural, and choose to see yourself walking in the fullness of everything God has for you. Deliberately choose, on purpose, to see yourself walking in everything He has provided for you. Go to the Word and write down everything that Jesus has provided and then start seeing yourself with it. He died so that you could have health, prosperity, freedom, joy, peace. That’s what His death was all about. He died so that you could live, live, live, live and enjoy your living while you are here on this earth. He wants you to enjoy yourself.

You cannot be defeated and you will not quit. You have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus. You have been loosed from satan’s grip. You will not lose. You will win.
