VICTORY: CYCLE OF TEMPTATION PART III

This is part 3 of a 3 part post. The first post was Temptation.
(1Ch 29:11) Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.

(Psa 98:1) O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

(Mat 12:20) A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
NOTE: Do we feel bruised or almost quenched? God is ready to send grace to help if we will hold on and pray! The victory is on the way!

VICTORY OVER DEATH, OUR FINAL ENEMY!
(Isa 25:8) He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.

(1Co 15:54, 55) So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55) O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

(1Co 15:57) But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

(1Jn 5:4) For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

THE END RESULT: THE VICTORS! [THROUGH CHRIST]
(Rev 15:2) And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
