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.
4 For the LORD your God [is] He who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
8 And the LORD said to Joshua, Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. There shall not a man of them stand before you.
31 The horse [is] prepared for the day of battle; but safety [is] from the LORD.
3 For they did not get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but [it was] Your right hand, and Your arm, and the light of Your face, because You favored them.4 You [are] my king, O God; command victories for 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.
4 For everything that has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.
37 But in all these things we more than conquer through Him who loved us.38 For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [can be] against us?
55 O death, where [is] your sting? O grave, where [is] your victory?56 The sting of death [is] sin, and the strength of sin [is] the law.57 But thanks [be] to God who gives 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.
13 Therefore take to yourselves the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
16 for a just one falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked shall fall into evil.
13 Through God we shall do mighty things; for He shall trample our enemies.
7 A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; it shall not come near you.
13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
