Play to win

Psalm 16:11 “You will show me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of Joy; At your right hand are pleasures forevermore”.

In this Christian life you have to play to win, don’t play not to loose. In a game of football, most teams playing against the top 4 teams play not to loose, they play on the defensive where as the top 4 play to win so they make all the onslaughts. They attack on all fronts.
Similarly in the Christian life you have to be on the offensive all the time. You have to play to win all your spiritual battles as well as your physical battles. It is a warfare you cannot afford to be on the defensive because the enemy will put pressure on you. Some one once said that if you don’t bother the devil, he will leave you alone. That is a lie of the Devil. Adam was minding his own business when the enemy deceived Eve.
There is no safe ground in this battle. The best way to defend is to attack. That is the only way out.
2Kgs. 7:1-8 Samarians were minding their own business when the Assyrians attacked them and brought so much famine in the land. But four crazy lepers refused to sit back they decided to take a step of faith and God magnified their footsteps so much that the enemy had to flee because it was afraid of what was going to happen.
To day if you will take that step of faith, that enemy that has been bothering you for a long time will flee.
Judges 6 Gideon was a mighty man of valour but he didn’t know so he was hiding. Today you have to bring out that mighty man of valour in you.

Mt. 11:12 “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force”
You have to take authority by force this morning.
For you to win you have to be aggressive and violent against the enemy.
God bless you.
