Pursue Your Victory

But thanks to God, who gives us the victory (making us conquers through our Lord Jesus Christ)” 1Corinthians 15:57 AMP

The year 2010 is going to be a very important year for all of us, so I would like to take a look at the two words:pursue and victory. It does not matter the challenge you face this year, keep these two words foremost in your mind.


Pursue means to chase, go or run after, continue, push, preserve, strive for, seek, or go in search of. There are many adjectives to encourage us to pursue the Lord this year and expect victory in your life.

Victory means to overcome, to conquer and to be victorious. When you pursue your victory, your faith is involved. Faith believes and focuses on proclaiming God’s word without reservation. Remember that Almighty God is greater than any obstacle or challenge that you can face! Now is the time to keep moving forward in the pursuit of your victory; expecting God to move in your life, all the while making preparations to succeed in every area of your life.

Begin speaking God’s word over your life, the life of your spouse, your children, grandchildren, and all of the other lives that are in the sphere of your influence. “See how the farmer waits expectantly for the precious harvest from the land.” (James 5:7 AMP). As we speak God’s word, be as expectant as the farmer is in James to reap your harvest in victory. Never give up! Continue steadfast in pursing your victory.

Settle in your heart and mind that God is a faithful God and He will keep His word. Don’t limit God with your thinking patterns. He waits to hear your words and fulfill them. Pursue your victory this new year in Christ.

“For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.” 1 John 5:4
