7 Days of Rest (Part 2)Sample
DAY 3 — The Fight Is Over
What a picture of what Jesus does for us! He removes our iniquities; He restores what was lost, because of our sins; He comforts us by the Holy Spirit. What a Lord! What a Savior! Notice the announcement that our warfare is over. We don’t have to defeat sin, sickness, or the devil. Jesus defeated them. That warfare is over. Our battle now is simply to resist the devil and resist what he throws our way. How do we resist the enemy? We resist with the Word of God, just as Jesus did. Speak God’s Word and trust that it will not return void. It is with the sword of the Spirit, the Word of God, that we enforce our victory in spiritual warfare and pull down strongholds. The war is already won because Jesus has paid the full price.

About this Plan
In part 2 of this devotional, you're going to continue to discover that God is committed to keeping His promises to you––no matter how far you've fallen, how often you've failed, or where you are in life. God doesn't need our holiness to prove His holiness. He doesn't need our promises to keep His promises. The struggle is over and Jesus did it all.
