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.

3 For, not by their own sword, gat they possession of the land, Nor did, their own arm, win victory for them,But thine own right hand, and thine own arm, and the light of thy face, Because thou hadst accepted them.4 Thou thyself, art my king, O God, Command thou the victories of Jacob.
Mais que vencedores

31 What, then, shall we say to a these things? If God against us?
55 Where, O death, is thy victory? Where, O death, is thy sting?56 Now, the sting of death, is, sin, and, the power of sin, is, the law;57 But, unto God, be thanks, who is giving unto us the victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
