The Lord's Victory - not mine

When I talk about being victorious and being an overcomer, I must mean the Lord's victories, and not mine.

My purpose must be to remain captive to the obedience of Christ so I can celebrate His triumphs.

When Jesus was crucified, He triumphed over sin. I must always remember this atonement. If I divert my attention from it, and merely become a worker in Christ's ministry, then I'm useless. My efforts are futile.

This is how I can be excellent - work like life depends upon serving Christ and pray as if love, as how we must understand it, depends on it.

J.B.
