Set The Lord Before You

Victory Through Virtues

You remain in victory by virtues, intentionally choosing to deploy virtues at every time.

Self-control is the ability to live by knowledge and not by feelings. You do things because you know what doing them means.

If you master virtues, you will become a master of victory.

Patience is a virtue and also a choice. The same applies to focus.

The Holy Spirit is the source of all divine virtues.

The Practice of Divine Meditation

It is the practice of love for Him that leads to a greater love for Him.

Psalm 63:6 - "When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches."

Psalm 104:34 (KJV) - "My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD."

Issues of divine destiny do not answer to worry.

The issue is not the trouble but that a Christian is troubled. It is not consistent with the plan of God for us.

The Foundation of Unshakeable Peace

Psalm 16:8 (KJV) - "I have set the LORD always before me: Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved."

Peace will not just land on you. It is a product of a conduct of setting the Lord before you.

Stop meditating on your troubles. Rather, meditate on the Lord.

Psalm 16:9 (KJV) - "Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: My flesh also shall rest in hope."

Living in Divine Light and Strength

If the Lord is in your life, it means you have advancement, security, clarity, and more.

Psalm 27:1 (KJV) - "The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"

Faith is agreeing and staying in agreement with the truth.

If the Lord is light and He lives in you, why do you think you are in darkness and without clarity?

John 12:46 - "I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness."

John 1:4 - "In Him was life, and the life was the light of men."

Your True Strength in Christ

You are as strong as you are required to be. You are not a weakling. You are stronger than your enemies.

2 Corinthians 4:7-10 - "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed—always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body."

2 Corinthians 12:9 - "And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

1 John 4:4 - "You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world."

Hebrews 12:2 - "looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Conclusion

Setting the Lord always before you is not a passive activity but an intentional practice that transforms your entire life experience. By choosing virtues over feelings, meditation on God over worry about troubles, and faith over fear, you position yourself for continuous victory. Remember that the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives within you, making you stronger than any challenge you face and providing the light, strength, and peace needed for every situation life presents.
