God has already declared that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus who bled, died and rose from the dead on our behalf. So, why aren’t more Christians walking in this Resurrection power?
Many Christians struggle with feeling stuck, even after giving their lives to Christ. Kap Chatfield addresses this concern, saying, “You may be stuck in cycles of sin or addiction, overcome by emotional roller coasters, or feeling spiritually heavy, despite your love for God.”
Look for Kap Chatfield’s upcoming new book, Prosperity is Not a Curse Word.
Even though Christians are bought by the blood of Jesus, they often still feel powerless and trapped by the enemy. The key to lasting freedom lies in recognizing that many Christians live from their body or soul, rather than from their spirit where God dwells. Chatfield states, “Most Christians live from their body or their soul but not from their spirit where God dwells.”
Chatfield reveals that many people struggle with secret sins, emotional instability and spiritual burnout. However, he believes that by understanding your design as a spirit, soul and body, you can experience true liberation. “You are a spirit with a soul and a body,” he affirms. This knowledge, along with pursuing intimacy with God, will help believers live with “grace and ease,” as Jesus promised: “Come to me all who are heavy laden and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
One key difference Chatfield highlights is the contrast between condemnation and conviction. He shares, “The Holy Spirit does not condemn; He convicts.” He elaborates, explaining, “Condemnation reminds you of what you’ll never be able to accomplish, while conviction reminds you of what’s already yours.”

Chatfield promises believers that we can place our full trust and dependency upon the Holy Spirit to completely transform us in all three areas of life. In Christ, we are not just survivors; we are more than conquerors. The victory He offers is not just a fleeting moment of triumph, but an enduring, unshakable position of authority and power.
