So, He sends us out against the enemy, confident of victory we can rejoice in together. Without delays, we would have less opportunity for overcoming. Only by overcoming are the promises to the overcomer available to us. To overcome there must be opposition and struggle. God cannot always shield us from problems without taking away from us the privilege of overcoming.
Victory is sweet.
What makes it sweet is that it is not easy. Certainly, in myself, I nor any other human, is bigger than the devil. Yet, in Christ, the least of us has greater rank and authority than the devil. In Christ, we have been given authority and victory. What I desired was instant manifestation of victory.
