Power struggles.........they come in all shapes and forms! Zuma Vs the Gupta's Vs Madonsela, Clinton Vs Trump, and right here at home I have my own power struggle I'm trying to figure out, Topaz Vs Ginger. On the one hand it is just playfulness but I can see an element of her wanting the upper hand over him.
The question is who will win in the end? Sound familiar in our spiritual lives? Well it is a struggle that played itself out just over 2000 years ago when Satan took on Jesus. During Jesus 40 day fast in the desert Satan offered Jesus the world if He would bow to him, but Jesus said NO! Instead Jesus took the battle to Satan at the Cross and WON!
The curious thing is that even though Jesus won the battle at Calvary we still have to make a choice every day to connect and become part of that victory for our own lives. Yes, we only need to confess Jesus as our Lord and Saviour once, but the choice to submit our will to His, is a daily struggle for each of us.
