🛡️ The Source of Our Victory: Standing Strong in Christ

In life, we all face battles—some visible, some hidden in our hearts. Whether it's anxiety, temptation, discouragement, or the weight of comparison, every believer eventually confronts moments where they feel like they're fighting just to stay standing. But the truth is: we were never meant to fight alone. 🙌

In a powerful devotional titled “The Source of Our Victory” from Impactus, we’re reminded of something foundational to our faith — that our strength doesn’t come from ourselves, but from Jesus Christ, our Savior and Victor.

💥 You’re Not the Hero of Your Story

One of the greatest lies the enemy tries to sell us is that we have to figure it all out. That we have to fix ourselves, earn God's love, or somehow “perform” our way into victory. But the Gospel tells us something radically different:

Victory has already been won.

Jesus didn’t die to give us a chance to save ourselves — He died and rose again to secure our victory, once and for all. The pressure to be “enough” is off. We now fight from victory, not for it. 🎯

✝️ Our Strength Comes from Christ

Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” It’s not just a motivational verse — it’s a declaration of where our help comes from.

The devotional emphasizes how even the strongest warriors of faith relied on God’s power to overcome:

David didn’t defeat Goliath because he had a great aim, but because he trusted the Lord of Hosts.
Paul didn’t plant churches across the world by his own strength, but through grace and perseverance in Christ.
And you, right now, can walk through your valley because the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead is living inside of you.

👟 Walking in Daily Victory

Victory doesn’t always look like shouting on mountaintops. Sometimes it’s choosing peace when you want to panic. Sometimes it's saying "no" to temptation when no one's watching. And sometimes it’s just showing up when you feel like hiding.

But in every step, Jesus walks with you. That’s the source of your strength. That’s the heartbeat of Jesus City — not a place of perfect people, but a place of victorious ones, walking by faith, not by sight. 🕊️
