Elevation Church shares this sermon from Pastor Steven Furtick titled “The Gift of Victory” where he teaches that God has given us victory and He wants us to win. According to 1 Corinthians chapter 15 vs 54-56 “when the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality then saying that is written will come true: “death has been swallowed up in victory” where o death is your victory? where , o death is your sting? the sting of death is sin and the power of sin is the law, but thanks be to God , He gives us the victory through our lord Jesus Christ”
The gift of victory is about the internal victory that God has promised us over sin. It is no good to win in every area of your life, if the victory over sin in your life is theoretical and abstract. In another word Paul is saying that there will come a day where the perishable will put on imperishable where the corruptible will put on incorruptible. He is talking about the resurrection of the righteous which will come in the last days and he’s basing this expectation in the example of Jesus Christ who did exactly that when He got out of the grave.
There is a principle in the text of already and not yet … as Paul is giving them an expectation of a future event of resurrection in their lives. He is giving them an exhortation which simply means to urge in a very determined fashion and he says that God has given us the victory or more specifically He gives us the victory.
