The Victorious Life

STUDIES IN THE BOOK OF JOSHUA This guide to Victorious Christian Living is not about a theory to be admired but an experience to be enjoyed. The greatest need of the Christian Church is a revival of the New Testament standard of living. There seems to be a wide gulf between what we believe and how we live, a marked contrast between our position in Christ and our actual experience. Too often we claim to believe our Bible from cover to cover, but fail to live out its truths in daily conduct. The spiritual emphasis of the book of Joshua is to move the believer beyond conversion into the land of promise that awaits us here and now. This book is written with the fervent prayer that the Lord may use it for His glory to help many people face afresh the implications of the Cross and the pattern of God's redemption in personal life.

The beginnings of the Victorious Life Conference, which in the summer of 1918 grew into three gatherings in different parts of the country, may be placed in the years 1911 and 1912, when several young Christian workers in Philadelphia were led out into an experience in Christ which transformed their lives.

A successful life of victory and purpose doesn't happen by accident. It's made up of many small pieces all leading to the bigger picture, just like a puzzle. Regardless of whether someone is newly saved or has been a Christian for 50 years, many times people have all the pieces to the puzzle but don't know how to put them together. Or maybe they're missing some of the pieces so the puzzle doesn't make sense. Victorious Living is about putting all those pieces together so that people can see the whole picture of the life God has for them. One of victory in every area of life, and a life of deep relationship with God. After having met hundreds of Christians who love God but who simply had no idea that God had an answer for their struggles and issues, or that Christianity was so much more than just assurance of a place in heaven, Joanne and her husband Ralph started sharing the content of Victorious Living with others. These lessons were learned through years of struggle and crises in their own lives, marriage, finances and health. The victory they were able to achieve through the principles within this book, is now available for others to tap into. Victorious Living goes beyond just doctrinal teaching and philosophies. The teachings are broken down into easy-to-understand principles that can be plugged into everyday life, so that each person reading this book can also experience the joy of victorious living.

The host of the daily radio program 'The Urban Alternative' offers hope to all who have encountered obstacles, setbacks, and defeats in life by showing the positive power of remaining faithful to the teachings of the Bible.

The victorious Christian life is not based on what you do for God, but what Christ has done for you. In Christ, you were ordained to conquer weaknesses, rise above failures, and inherit all of God's promises. Jesus said, it is the Father's good pleasure to give you His kingdom. God wants you to inherit everything reserved for the believer. In fact, the Bible says that we have been given everything that pertains to life and godliness. This means that a life lived in Christ cannot fail. While Jesus promised freedom, many feel bound to their past, the requirements of religion, and the limitations of their abilities. This is because the promise isn't given to those who walk according to the flesh, but only to those who walk in the Spirit. So what does it mean to walk in the Spirit? How do you live according to the new creation and put the deeds of the old creation to death? Understanding these fundamental truths are essential for walking in victory. Victory has been given, but we must learn to live in the Spirit. Living by faith isn't complicated, but unless we know what has been given to us through Christ, the truth cannot set us free. Lay aside guilt, fear, and frustration. Take the hand of grace and enjoy your fellowship with God as you journey through a life of victory!
