Dear Young Christian:
I came across a statement the other day that I thought was rather interesting and significant. This is what it said:
“The entire book of God (the Bible)
is a record of the victories of Christ!”
It brought to mind the following verse: “Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is Thine; Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and Thou art exalted as head above all” (1 Chronicles 29:11).
Yes, when we know Christ we are on the winning side. His is the victorious one and will continue to be so until His enemies are forever destroyed. “The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death” (1 Corinthians 15:26).
Isn’t it wonderful to know the Lord? I wouldn’t want to trade places with anyone who is not on the Lord’s side. “His holy arm, hath gotten Him the victory” (Psalm 98:1).
Your Christian Friend,
