DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
The Duke of Wellington and Napoleon Bonaparte were born in the same year, 1769. Each was born on an island and became fatherless in early boyhood; they each had four brothers and three sisters, and each attended military school in France and at the same time. Both became lieutenant colonels within a day of each other; both excelled in mathematics and were great soldiers; they each commanded great armies. And both are remembered for what happened at Waterloo, where one became a victor and the other a loser.
Also Read: DCLM Daily Manna 6 April 2022 — Not Of The World
In the passage before us, the tribe of Judah moved into her possession, dispossessing their archenemies, the Philistines, in the process. Their border stretched to the river of Egypt, another enemy nation that had enslaved Israel for over four hundred years. The two Philistine cities of Ashdod and Gaza together with their towns and villages were captured and possessed by Judah, along with a host of other cities.
This narrative provides the template for hope and assurance that as the Lord has promised, the Church will continue to overcome and dominate her enemies. The gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
No matter the assaults of the enemies against your life, step out today in faith and assurance that the host of heaven will give you a resounding victory. Remember the promise that “whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world” (1 John 5:4). Believers should claim God’s promise of victory. As we go in this assurance all through the year, we will be more than conquerors in Christ Jesus.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
We are more than conquerors.
