How do we know that God delivers His people from sin?

Answered in 1 source

God delivers His people from sin progressively, as illustrated by the conquest of the nations in Canaan, done 'little by little.'

In Deuteronomy 7:22, the Lord states that He will drive out the nations before Israel 'little by little.' This reflects the ongoing and progressive nature of God's deliverance from sin. It is not a one-time event but a continuous process, emphasizing that sanctification is gradual. Just as Israel was called to engage in the fight against enemies that were mightier than themselves, Christians are encouraged to trust in God’s strength for daily victories over sin. This process shows how God equips His people, allowing them to grow in strength and faith as they confront the sins within themselves. Just as God was faithful to Israel in their physical battles, He is also faithful to sustain believers in their spiritual warfare.
