Victorious Living In A Dangerous World
Practical Guide For Present Day Believers
Is it possible to live a superabundant and victorious spiritual life in a world that
is becoming an increasingly dangerous place for believers to live in as the forces
of secularism and radical materialism go on rampage? Faithful Christian living is
ridiculed in many quarters, spiritual commitment is minimized, and believers'
shortcomings and failings are publicly celebrated. In a world that speaks less and
less about faithfulness, how does one sustain the joy of Christian living?
Anthony Mario Ozele distills a conscientious study of the Scriptures,
diligent research, and life experience into thirty "Principles for Victorious Living."
These principles show how believers can walk the path of victory; how to reap the
rewards of following God's way of life; and how trust in God allows the faithful to be
freed from the shackles of old desires, habits, and temptation. As Ozele explains, Satan
uses setbacks, disappointments, and discouragement to cloud our thinking. There is
a fight between good and evil, between right and wrong; and the battleground is in the
mind of every human being.
Some have given in to defeat or feel confused about the importance of
their Christian identity. Although the path to a victorious life can be complex
and confusing, the Principles for Victorious Living confirm that God's plan is an
attainable reality for every believer.
"Regardless of your circumstance, God is on your side; you need only trust
in Him to live the victorious life," writes Ozele. The "secret" is that victorious
living is in keeping God's commandments, in tandem with grace supplied through
life of intimate union with Jesus Christ. In sacramental fellowship with him, believers are
assured of superabundant life.
Living by faith and convictions is not easy; but with simplicity and clarity,
Ozele reveals how we can be victorious in fulfilling our divine potential—even in the dangerous world.
