Victory

Victory

What does it mean to live a “victorious” Christian life?

God’s Response

Every child of God defeats this evil world by trusting Christ to give the victory. 1 John 5:4

How we thank God, who gives us victory over sin and death through Jesus Christ our Lord! 1 Corinthians 15:57

I run straight to the goal with purpose in every step. 1 Corinthians 9:26

Sin always destroys—sometimes dramatically and sometimes slowly. Sin harasses you, constantly drawing you away from your relationship with God. When temptation is allowed to lurk around the edges of your life, sin eventually finds a way into your heart. It is like a cancer that you fail to remove from your body. It is painful, it infects you, and it will eventually kill you. The more relentlessly you battle sin and remove it piece by piece from your life, the more you will experience the victorious Christian life and all the blessings that come with it. Achieving God’s future rewards requires present obedience.

God’s Promise

The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 7:25
