God always leads us to triumph. That means every single time. Every time. Every battle. Every circumstance. Triumph – every time. That’s great news. God doesn’t say to us, ‘come live for me and follow me and I will cause you to experience some victories in your life, not every time but sometimes.’ No, absolutely not! God says ‘I will cause you to come out victoriously every single time. You may then ask, “Why does it seem like so many people fail.” I can only share with you what I know to be true. I believe the word of God is truth. I believe it is the final answer. I have experienced times in my life when it appeared that God wasn’t coming through and even times where it appeared he failed to miss my deadline. I have experienced times when normal people would have said (and it has been said to me) “don’t you realize God has let you down, he didn’t come through for you?” That is a lie from the devil – God hasn’t, never will, it’s not even in his nature to let me down. He is the one who said ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’ He also said, ‘I will never see the righteous forsaken nor their seed begging for bread.’ Therefore the only truth is what he has said in his word. Now, if I am not in a place where I am seeing his word manifest – I must simply hold on. Do what the Bible says; having done all, stand. I know if I refuse to quit – I win. The word says so. The enemy can’t steal my blessing, he can’t stop my prayers from being answered, and he doesn’t have that much power. The only thing he can do is to try to get me to become weary and quit. The only time he wins is when we quit. Granted, sometimes it’s hard to keep going. But it is possible.
