Ministry of the Week


Each week, Victorious Living selects a Ministry that is helping others to grow in the Awesomeness of God and spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ - as He has instructed us to do by the Great Commission... "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nati...ons, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. -- Matthew 28:18-20 KJV

The Victorious Ministry this week is The Pursuit of Purpose. The Ministry is founded by Alecia Roberts. The Pursuit of Purpose Blog is located at http://thepursuitofpurposeandsurvival.blogspot.com/. Alecia Roberts is a Christian, wife, mother and grandmother. She has three daughters and one grandson. Alecia’s God-given purpose is to share her experiences in life to offer hope, encouragement and support to others.

Alecia writes, “About seven years ago the Lord placed the desire in my heart to write a book sharing my experiences and lessons learned in life. For many years I listened to Satan's lies when he would tell me no one would be interested in hearing or reading anything I had to say. I've realized that Satan wanted me to believe his lies because he doesn't want me to do anything good for the kingdom of God. He recognizes what a powerful weapon I can be against him and for the Lord. I also spent far too much time trying to find the victory in my life that would encourage and inspire others by offering them hope. The fact is the victories in my life have come daily. I looked at my inabilities instead of God's capabilities and what He can do through me. Instead of viewing this assignment God has given me as an overwhelming one which exceeds my abilities, I am now extremely excited about it because I am seeing Him working through me. It is my desire that when people pick this book up to read it they won't be able to put it down. When they've finished reading it I want them to feel it is the best book they've ever read. I want them to walk away from it with new or renewed hope, faith, belief, strength and courage. I have been working on my manuscript and am now in the process of making some decisions about publishing it. Please pray with me for discernment and wisdom to be faithful, obedient and that the Lord's will for this book will be done.”

The Victorious Ministry this week is The Word is Your Life:  http://www.thewordisyoulife.com/. Over 10 years ago God gave Billie Miller the revelation that, "The Word is Your Life!" - which changed his whole perspective on living.  God and His Word are more than just the way of life or the path to life.  The Word 'is' your life.  And once you get the full understanding that the Word is your life, you'll never let it go.  You'll never give up!  You'll never quit!  Billie's teachings have helped many Christians rise far above mediocrity to enjoy a more significant purpose.
Billie is a Christian writer, speaker, and a respected Bible teacher called by God. His mission is to provide life-changing information that will elevate the body of Christ. 
Billie states, "So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of BLESSING if we don’t give up." Galatians 6:9 NLT.  You can’t quit now! You can’t give up now! Not when you’re so close. You don't realize how close you are to your VISION. You don't understand how close you are to your DREAMS. That's why you're under so much pressure. The devil doesn't want you to ACHIEVE.”
Billie’s FaceBook Page is 1,000,000 Christians That Won't Quit! It is located at http://www.facebook.com/MillionNoQuit.  Fellowship with other Believers now!
Thank you Billie Miller! God's Blessings to You!

Second Chance

Minister Monique Walker writes, “Lord, I need to feel the touch of Your hand, your will for my life I want to understand. Lord, forgive me like only You can, for You're the God of a second chance.  Lord, I'm tired of the way that I am, in Your love I want to live instead to heed to Your every command, for You're the God of a second chance, for You're the God of a second chance.”  The Ultimate Act of obedience is found in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.   He submitted to God and gave us a second chance… the chance to restore our rightful covenant with Him.  I cannot begin or even want to imagine what it would be like without Him, but am so ever grateful to be offered the opportunity to know Him!  Saints, aren’t you glad you know Him today?  Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. -- Revelation 22:14 KJV

The Victorious Ministry this week is Lions of God: http://www.facebook.com/lionsofgod.  Arial Alexis LionessofGod is the Founder and will be a remarkable 16 years old, this coming Wednesday, May 18.  We are ecstatic that she is so diligent in working to advance the Kingdom of God.
After encouragement from her Mother, Arial started Blog:  http://www.lionsofgod.blogspot.com/.  She says, “although my heart goes out most to my peers, teens struggling to seek God in this world, I soon realized that it is not just the adolescents seeking meaning a purpose, and that God needed His Message to be universal, for all His Children.”  Seven months, 2000 plus Blog views and hundreds of Facebook 'followers' later, she is honored to be able to share God's Love and His Word with people all across the world.  “May all His Promises be fulfilled in your lives, with my Love and His ~ Arial, Lioness of God.”
Thank you Arial! God's Blessings to You!

Just Believe

The world views “existence” as seeing, touching, smelling, hearing or even tasting something – in order to believe.  To Christians, it is not about proof - it is about belief.   Our evidence lies in the spiritual awareness of God.  We not only trust God, but are in tune with the Holy Spirit, who guides and directs us to the things of God.  When you grow closer to God, you begin to see with spiritual eyes, to hear in the Spirit, to smell the Sweet Rose of Sharon, and to “taste and see that the Lord is good!” -- Psalm 34:8 KJV.   Lord, we are forever thankful to You for allowing us to get to know You, for loving us before we could love and for Your ultimate redemption through Your salvation.  Lord, we lift You up, You are the true Holy of Holies.  “Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.  Serve the LORD with gladness:  come before His presence with singing.  Know ye that the LORD, He is God:  it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.  Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name.  For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all generations!” -- Psalm 100 KJV ~ All Glory is Yours, O Lord - yesterday, today and forevermore!  Hallelujah and Amen!
