What Are You Hearing? Are You Hearing The Sound Of Victory?

So what are you hearing?   Are you hearing the sound of victory?   What does victory sound like to you?    Is it a resounding sound?  When a sound is resonant, it is clear, it is easily heard.    Rather than ask what are you hearing, a better question would be, what sound are you making?

One of the things that was shared in bible study last night was about the characteristics of a lion.   How a lion never roars when he is pursuing his prey.   He only roars after he has killed his prey.    It is not until he has experienced victory, after he has captured his prey, that he begins to roar.

We have to understand that we are already victorious.   We have something to rejoice about.    We are not in a battle trying to overcome the enemy.  The battle has already been won.   The enemy has already been defeated.  We have been given the privilege of walking in the victory that has already been won.    Yet we sit back in silence as though we are hiding from the enemy.   We are moving based on the sound we hear coming from the enemy rather than offering of the sound of praise to our Father for the victory that has already been won. 

The Bible says that the satan walks around "as" a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.   The key word is "as".    But my question is how do you walk "as"?   Do you walk as a person defeated?   Or do you walk "as" one who has been given authority?

Understand  today that you are a trumpet waiting to be heard.    There are people around you that need to hear that the battle is over and that the enemy has been defeated.   Your sound needs to outweigh the roars of the enemy so that the world will know that the battle is over and victory is won.
