Victory is our covenant position in Christ

Our enemies will never triumph over us...

The Father had His Son take the beatings, oppression and place of defeat on the cross for covenant reasons for us.

The Father then raised HIm up and gave Him all victory. and the same Victory manifests outward through the substance of Jesus' very presence within us.

Because Jesus agreed to take our place, we can take His place.

We, in Christ, as we take our covenant position in Christ possess that same victory.

2Co 2:14 Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

Jesus' very righteousness kept Him perfectly sound, safe, protected, and oppression free. His Righteousness given to us, as a grace gift. when Received by us confers the same Victory unto us

Isa 54:14, 15 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. Behold, they shall surely gather together, [but] not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue [that] shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This [is] the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness [is] of me, saith the LORD.

Isaish spoke of a new covenant righteousness only possibly given and received when Jesus Died on the cross to transfer it. The new covenant allows no space for defeat.

I heard Him say this: "I had given one Son up to be bullied so that you (the rest of His sons) would never be bullied."
