The Blood Of Christ Has Given Us Victory

 Just as the work of the Cross provides salvation when we believe it to be true, the work of the Cross also provides victory over the old sin nature when it is believed. We need to understand that the sin nature remains with us until our life on earth is ended,  but The Blood Of Christ Has Given Us Victory over the functioning power of the sin nature within our life.
 At rebirth, Christ's work on the Cross permanently severed the power that flowed from the old sin nature into the life of the new believer. The electricity (which represents the old-sin nature), is still there, and the lamp (which represents the believer), is still there, but the connection between the old sin nature and the believer has been severed, forever.
 The power working in a believer either comes from the old sin nature or the new life in Christ. But when Christ died, He not only died for our sins, paying the price of sin (the death penalty), but He died UNTO sin, providing victory over the dominating sin nature and permanently severing us from the power it has over us. 
By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank you, that Christ not only died for our sins so that our sins are forgiven, but He died unto sin so that the old sin nature does not have power over us, as we trust our lives into His hands. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.
