Constant Victory Means Constant Battle

Life for the Lord is not something about which we can just say, "Well, I made that victory! I've won the battle & the war is over, & now I'm going to settle down & enjoy life!" Because we never have a victory without a battle, & there are some battles we have to keep fighting our whole lives until our dying day!

It's a battle every day--especially with our besetting sins--"the weights & sins that so easily beset us." (Heb.12:1) Some people seem to think they can get the victory once & for all over something & they'll never have another battle. But that's where the Devil is apt to test us the most, on our weak spot, our Achilles heel, our besetting sin, our greatest temptation! But the Lord always has the victory for us if we'll keep going for Him! He says, "My grace is sufficient for thee; for My strength is made perfect in your weakness." (2Cor.12:9)

It's really thrilling to look back & see our own progress!--To look back down that rugged mountain road we've just come over & to see we're really getting somewhere! But it's even more exciting to look forward & up to heights we're soon to attain & views we're soon to thrill to if we keep fighting, climbing, winning & don't quit!--Amen?
