There’s a difference in walking in victory and walking in defeat. When the spies went into Jericho, Rahab told them that they knew the Lord had given them the land, that they were afraid of the Israelites and were living in fear. They went back confident that they were going to be victorious over the city with great walls. The people of Jericho were walking in defeat, while the Israelites walked around the city in victory before it happened. As believers, we are called to walk in triumphant victory. God has already given you the land. He has given you victory before you step onto the battlefield. Just like the Israelites, He has called you to do something in order to gain the victory. Don’t sit behind the Jordan in fear. Step out in faith and be triumphant.
Here are some Bible verses on being triumphant:
1. For His lovingkindness prevails over us [and we triumph and overcome through Him], And the truth of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)
Psalms 117:2 AMP
2. Put on truth as a belt to strengthen you to stand in triumph. Put on holiness as the protective armor that covers your heart.
Ephesians 6:14 TPT
3. For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:17 NLT
4. But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.
2 Corinthians 2:14 ESV
5. No weapon that is formed against you will succeed; And every tongue that rises against you in judgment you will condemn. This [peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And this is their vindication from Me,” says the Lord.
Isaiah 54:17 AMP
