As victory is the result of Christ’s life lived out in the believer, it is important to see that victory, not defeat, is God's purpose for His children.
Can anything separate us from the love of Christ? Can trouble, pain or persecution? Can lack of clothes and food, danger to life and limb, the threat of force of arms?. . . No, in all these thinks we win an overwhelming victory through Him Who has proved his love for us. (Romans 8:35 ,37 *Phillips)
Thank You, Lord Jesus, that our final victory is secure because of Your sacrifice upon the cross, Your rising from the dead, and Your glorification in heaven, where You plead for us.
