MESSAGE:
Read – Open Heaven 1 December 2019
It pains me whenever I see Christians acting timid in the face of challenges. If only you knew who you are, you would never be afraid of anything again.
Can the sonof the richest man in the world ever feel poor? How come some children of the strongest Person in the whole universe are feeling vulnerable?
Just like how the richest man in the world has made a lot of money that his son can enjoy, your Father has won all battles so that you can walk in victory.
There is however one battle that Jesus cannot fight for you, that is the battle against your flesh. You are to put your flesh under subjection by yourself.
If you win the battle against the flesh, then you will walk in the victory that Jesus won for you, but if you allow your flesh to rule over you, then you will be a victim of the devil through sicknesses, diseases, failures, depression and so on.
KEY POINT:
To be more than a conqueror, all you have to conquer is your flesh, leave the rest to Jesus.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Ezekiel 43-44, 2 Peter 2
Hymn 5
1. Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
Christ, the Royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banners go!
Chorus
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
2. At the Sign of triumph
Satan’s host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise!
3. Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
All one body we
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
4. Onward, then, ye people,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song;
Glory, praise and honour,
Unto Christ the King;
This, through countless ages
Men and angels sing.

How do we conquer the flesh?
Have tried many times but to no avail
Am getting tired and weak
