Vitória
A vitória do cristão não depende de suas próprias forças, mas do poder de Deus que opera em nós. As Escrituras declaram que somos mais que vencedores por meio daquele que nos amou.
A vitória vem de Deus
O Senhor luta por nós. Quando confiamos nele, nenhuma arma forjada contra nós prosperará e nenhum inimigo prevalecerá.
for your God YHWH [is] He who is going with you, to fight for you with your enemies—to save you.
And YHWH says to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them, for I have given them into your hand, there does not stand a man of them in your presence."
A horse is prepared for a day of battle, || And the deliverance [is] of YHWH!
For they did not possess the land by their sword, || And their arm did not give salvation to them, || But Your right hand, and Your arm, || And the light of Your countenance, || Because You had accepted them. You [are] He, my King, O God, || Command the deliverances of Jacob.
Mais que vencedores
Em todas as circunstâncias, a fé nos dá a vitória. O mundo tenta nos derrubar, mas Cristo já venceu o mundo e nos faz triunfar.
because everyone who is begotten of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcame the world—our faith.
But in all these we more than conquer, through Him who loved us; for I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor messengers, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things about to be, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God that [is] in Christ Jesus our Lord.
What, then, will we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [is] against us?
Where, O Death, your sting? Where, O Death [[or Hades]], your victory?" And the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the Law; and to God—thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Força para a batalha
Deus nos reveste com sua armadura espiritual, nos fortalece e nos encoraja. Mesmo que o justo caia sete vezes, ele se levanta.
because of this take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the day of the evil, and having done all things—to stand.
For the righteous fall and rise seven [times], || And the wicked stumble in evil.
We do mightily in God, || And He treads down our adversaries!
One thousand fall at your side, || And a myriad at your right hand, || [But] it does not come near to you.
I have strength for all things, in Christ’s strengthening me;
