Victory Through The Blood
“Thanks Be To God, Who Gives Us The Victory Through Our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor.15:57).
Victory always brings thrill and joy to the winner, right? None of us like defeat.
Victory Over Sin
Rom. 5:19 says, “Through one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.”
Adam and Eve sinned and lost all authority, victory, and freedom. Satan happily took the key from Adam and started ruling the world. Since then Satan started enslaving men under his captivity. People were under the curse of sin. Satan injected the poisonous blood into our veins.

That sin-polluted blood had to be replaced by the holy blood of a sinless man. That Man was Jesus! He willingly shed His entire blood for us and said, “My beloved children, take and drink; This is the Blood of the New Covenant. It is shed for many for the remission of their sins!”
Thus sin is replaced by righteousness. The Bible declares in Rom. 3:10; “There is none righteous, no, not one…”
“For all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory” being justified freely by “His grace through the redemption that is Jesus Christ” (Rom. 3:23-24).
Born And Bom Again We are born as a sinner in this world but born again through the blood of Jesus as a righteous person in the kingdom of God.
We are born as poor, defeated, helpless people but God by His grace made us born again as rich, victorious people in His kingdom. Hence, let us thank God who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus!
Victory Over Curse
God cursed Adam, Eve, the serpent, and the earth because of sin.
To the serpent, God said, “Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all cattle and beast of the field; on your belly, you shall go; you shall eat dust all the days of your life.”
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed (JESUS). He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel” (Gen. 3:14-15).
To the woman, He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain, you shall bring forth children; Your desire shall be for your husband And he shall rule over you” (Gen. 3:16).
To Adam, He said: ” Because you have heeded the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat – cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil, you shall eat of it all the days of your life. Thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, And you shall eat the herb of the field.”
“In the sweat of your face
You shall eat bread
Till you return to the ground.
For out of it you were taken;
For dust you are,
And to dust you shall return” (Gen. 3:17-19).
The curse came to the whole of mankind. It was the consequence of sin! But thanks be to God who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ! He became a curse for us and removed all our curses through his blood and gave us the Abrahamic blessings (Gal. 3:13-14).
Victory Over Poverty
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich” (2 Cor. 8:9).
God doesn’t want His children to beg around. You are sons and daughters of a King! You should keep to your standard. For you are representing God on earth. It is the devil who makes you poor and miserable.
In Jn. 10:10 Jesus says, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.”
Obviously, God wants us, His children to enjoy an abundant life and a hundredfold life in this world and everlasting life in the world to come. That’s why Jesus shed His blood for you.
3Jn. 2 says “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.”
How Can You Get The Abundant Life And Blessings?
By obeying God and walking in His commandments.
Read Deuteronomy 28:1-14. All these blessings are meant for us, the ‘New Israel.”
I was poor once, but the Lord made me rich physically, spiritually, materially, and emotionally as it is written in Ps. 103:1-5. Therefore every day I sing along with David, “Bless the Lord O my soul; All that is within me bless His holy name.”
You too should say, “The Lord is my good Shepherd; I lack nothing” (Ps. 23:1).
“And my God shall supply all my needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4:19).
Come on, now repeat after me:
“I am rich because of Jesus!
I am healthy because of Jesus!
I am young because of Jesus!
I am beautiful because of Jesus!
I am blessed because of Jesus!
I am victorious because of Jesus!”
And thanks be to God who has given me victory through our Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!
Victory Over Satan
“Having disarmed principalities and poTt)ers, He made fr public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it” (Col. 2:15).
You should know that Satan is a defeated foe. The greatest battle ever fought was at the cross of Calvary.
According to Colossians 2:14-L5, look what our Lord has done to give us victory over Satan.
- First of all our Lord wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us.
- Secondly, He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross (vs.14).
- He disarmed principalities and powers
- He made a public spectacle of them.
- Our Lord triumphed over all the works of Satan (vs. 15). Hallelujah!
When Jesus was crucified, dead, and buried, I am sure Satan and his demons would have thrown a party in hell which is their residence! However, that celebration did not last long. To their astonishment and dismay, our Lord rose victoriously on the third day! After that victory, Satan and the demons were truly disappointed. Satan was in utter shame and dismay.
Lord Jesus has triumphed over Satan, death, and hell! In 1 Cor.15:50-58, Apostle Paul exclaims, “O Death, where is your victory? Death has been swallowed up in victory. And thanks be to God who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Amen.
Come on, raise your hand, and thank the Father. Thanks be to God who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus. Amen!
Our Final Victory
So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory” (1 Cor. 15:54).
David fought Goliath in the Name of the Lord and cut off his head. But the Lord Himself fought the battle against Satan
and crushed his head. Now listen!
Jesus Is The Head Of The Church. And He Has Crushed The Head Of Satan. We Are The Body Of Christ And We Are Supposed To Crush The Body Of Satan.
Satan is now roaming about with a damaged head. His brain functions no more.
1 Pet. 5:8 says, “The devil is roaming like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.”
That devil is a duplicate lion. But the original lion is Jesus who is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah! And the original lion is reigning inside of you. Now those who know this truth about what the Lord has done, will not be afraid of the devil.
Instead, the devil has to be afraid of you and should flee from you. Satan will try his tricks only on timid Christians. If you are strong in the Lord and in His word, the Enemy can do nothing to you.
Once again, a final battle has to be fought at Armageddon. In that battle, our Lord Jesus who is the King of kings and the Lord of lords will destroy the Antichrist and his followers who received the mark, ‘666’.
The stage is all set for the Antichrist’s reign. And so the last human kingdom on this earth as revealed in the visions of King Nebuchadnezzar and prophet Daniel and also the revelation given to John the apostle will be literally fulfilled!
That is the final victory. See what Revelation 11:15 says: “Kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!”
And we also will reign with Him forever. This is made possible through the shed blood of Jesus!
Therefore, let us raise our hands and thank God who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
