Victory Through Surrender: Teachings from Paul on Darkness, Light, and Our Identity in Christ

Summary

When we think of the apostle Paul, we may imagine him in many places—along the road to Damascus, preaching in a synagogue, speaking on the Areopagus, emerging from a shipwreck, penning letters in a prison cell. All of these places have one thing in common: they are in a world controlled by our enemy. While the people he encountered may not have realized that they were in the devil's grip, Paul knew exactly with whom he was grappling, and it wasn't those who disagreed with him, laughed at him, or persecuted him. It was Satan.

In this book of never-before-published content, A. W. Tozer draws from the life and ministry of Paul as laid out in his epistles to show us how to identify our true enemy, recognize who we are in Christ, and live victoriously as carriers of the Light in a world ensnared by the forces of darkness.

In a time when we find ourselves constantly pitted against one another in social and political battles, we must understand that our enemy is not the person standing next to us or the one we're arguing with online. Rather, Paul calls us to live in complete surrender to Jesus Christ, so that we can withstand everything the devil throws at us—and win.
