The verse and quote bring out an amazing point. We have victory! Let's not pray hoping that God will win the fight against sin and deception. Let's pray knowing that God will have victory. If we as His chosen people come before His throne boldly knowing that God can redeem this world, then victory is ours! We're not defeated! We are victorious!
