Revelation 21:7
Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.
Victorious means to win a victory, be triumphant. Other synonyms include: conquering, vanquishing, winning, champion, and successful. It does not mean perfect and get it on the first try. To be victorious means you faced a battle of some sort.
Thomas Edison has many quotes on victory.
“Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
“Genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration.”
“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is to try just one more time.”
My personal favorite is, “When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this – you haven’t.”
The point in all of this is victory doesn’t happen over night. It isn’t being perfect all of the time. It is a battle we all fight every single day. There will come a day when God says our battles are over and if we have been faithful and never gave up, we will be victorious and inherit all God has for us.
Lord, give me the strength to carry on in life. I want to be victorious and inherit all You have for me. ~amen
