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 they did not get the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your countenance, Because you were favorable to them.4 You are my King, O God: Command deliverance 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 whatever is begotten of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that has overcome the world, [even] our faith.
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,39 nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in creation, will 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 [is] against us?
55 O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?56 The sting of death is sin; and the power 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.

7 A thousand will fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; [But] it will not come near you.
13 I can do all things in him who strengthens me.
