We know no defeat!!
Psalm 34:19-22
Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him from them all.
The phrase “We know no defeat” brings to mind 2 Corinthians 4:8-10
We are pressed but not crushed, persecute but not abandoned, struck down but no destroyed… (paraphrased).
The verse above says the righteous man or a man living according to the principles of the bible will face many challenges but God will help him overcome all these challenges
Scripture also says in Proverbs 24:16 that:
.. a righteous man may fall seven times but he will rise up…….
In short, what the bible is trying to say is that failure or defeat is not the end of a Christian’s life. God will help you excel if you trust him and continue to obey his commands. ( 2Corinthians 2:14)
Even among the unsaved, scientific literature tells us that successful scientists that made great inventions tried and failed several times before they were successful. There are people like Thomas Edison who discovered light, the Wright Brothers who invented the aeroplane etc.
John 14:1
Let not your heart be troubled. Believe in God and believe also in me.
This verse from the new testament is encouraging Christians not be worried or troubled about their challenges.
Just trust in God, He will make a way.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Trust in God and do what is right.
Prayer
Let this song be your confession and prayer
We know no defeat
We know no defeat
Jesus is our Captain and we know no defeat.
We always triumph
We always triumph
Jesus is our Captain
And we always triumph.
Amen
