Christians desire to grow in their relationship with God. They want to flourish, to experience victory in their Christian lives. They want to live in the overcoming power that the cross provides. But they are stuck. They are like my friend, John, who works sixty hours per week, sits in two hours of traffic each day and carries the burdens of the world on his shoulders. He and his wife, Jenny, love each other, or at least they used to. They now spend their time together carting their kids to activities after driving through Taco Bell for dinner. Every week, John sits in the second row at church, listening to the pastor, and he and Jenny volunteer in the children’s church. But he told me last week that he is exhausted. On the surface, he has a good life, but deep down he is drowning. He has no real victory. How does someone like John stem the tide? How does he start living the victorious lifestyle Jesus came to offer? Many find the answer in promises of a magic pill, something that provides a quick fix. But such fixes don’t exist. The victory of God is an ongoing lifestyle while adopting and applying certain priorities that prepare and equip us for life. True victory comes in heaven and not on earth. And only the Spirit of God living through the believer based on God’s Word can give true victory. But there are basic principles that God has used throughout the centuries to encourage believers and give them victory. In this book, I’ve pinpointed nine principles and priorities that will help a believer live a victorious Christian life. They are: -victory in preparing for eternity -victory in experiencing God's love -victory in God's grace -victory in God’s sovereignty -victory in spending time with Jesus -victory in close relationships -victory in the local church -victory in rest -victory in healthy living These nine priorities will help you understand and apply principles that are simple, biblical, and time-tested to produce spiritual, emotional, and physical benefits. My aim is to stimulate you to live these biblical truths while allowing the Holy Spirit to transform you.

Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5:5 If you believe in Jesus and have accepted the life He offers through the cross, then the world and its ways shouldn't be able to drag you down. But do you still find yourself uncertain how to pray and experience victory? Pastor Tony Evans stands ready to help you "put on the full armor of God" (Ephesians 6:11). In this collection of spiritual warfare prayers that correspond with each piece of armor, you'll find hope for your struggles with... fear and anxiety broken relationships financial issues negative habits and addictions pain and illness Satan's influence is not the final word for those who, through Jesus, overcome the world. God has given you the resources you need to be victorious—and you can access them now through prayer!

Every struggle and conflict faced in the physical realm has its root in the spiritual realm. With passion and clarity, pastor and Bible teacher Dr. Tony Evans demystifies spiritual warfare so that readers can tackle challenges and obstacles with spiritual power. This Bible study explains the spiritual origins of daily struggles and the tools of spiritual armor God has given believers to live in the victory that has already been won through Jesus Christ.
