How do we know that God ensures victory in spiritual warfare?
Answered in 1 source
God ensures victory through Christ, who has overcome sin and death, giving believers confidence in their struggle.
The assurance of victory in spiritual warfare comes from the redemptive work of Christ. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus has overcome all adversaries, as stated in Colossians 2:15 where it mentions, 'having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.' This victory is not just theoretical; it assures believers that the outcome of their spiritual battles aligns with God’s ultimate purpose and plan. Furthermore, believers are equipped with the Holy Spirit and the gospel, which are powerful instruments for overcoming strongholds. Hence, warriors in this spiritual battle can engage with the confidence that the victory belongs to the Lord, who empowers them in their endeavors.
