Text: Psalm 118:15
'Sounds of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous:The Lord's right hand has done mighty things.'
In the pursuit for success in life's endeavours, we could choose to rely on our strength, wisdom, influence, help from friends or on God to succeed. In our desperation sometimes, we make the wrong choice because we think it will ensure quick results. The Psalmist in Psalms chapter 20 verse 7, after considering the range of alternatives that life presented him, concluded that it is better to trust in God's name for victory. That explains why he couldn't stand in battle with Saul's armour when he decided to fight the Philistine giant. So, if you want the type of victory that becomes the talk of the town, fills everywhere and everyone with wonder, then, you have to look in the direction of God. That is the kind of victory that made the women to sing, 'Saul has killed his thousands and David his ten thousands'(1Sam18:7).
The word of God assures us of resounding victory– victory that will swallow every form of defeat, announce us to the world and bring us up to speed. Today,God's right hand is raised to secure resounding joy and victory for us on all sides if only we depend on Him. May He fill your life and your house with great joy and victory now and always.
You are a winner!
