We are on His side now

“O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?”

I Corinthians 15:55 (New King James Version)

Do you know when you would ask such a question ? When you have total confidence about where you are. Imagine this, you have one person chasing you and you are running running running. And as you run you see your friends up ahead with 10,000 military troops with all their armored trucks and weapons. Now you stand with the entire troop and look at the person chasing you . I am sure you would go “HA HA! Now what are you going to do !! “

We read in verse 56 , “The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.” Jesus conquered it all on the cross !! We read in Romans 6: 14, “For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.” Wow ! We get to look sin straight in the face and say ‘you have no dominion over me !!’

While temptation to sin always lurks around like a lion waiting to pounce we need to understand the reality here … Christ conquered it already on the cross. Freedom is ours. The devil is a liar . He will trick you into bondage and fill your head with lies like there is no hope for you , you are forever lost in this sin. Tell him ‘Sin has NO dominion over me !! I am under grace ! “ This is the living word of God !!

Know where we are now … ransomed by His blood , saved by His grace , called His own … We are standing on the side of Christ now.

God Bless
