“Death has been swallowed up in victory”

“Death has been swallowed up in victory”
Defeat is not your destiny, your birthright is victory. You have everything you need to stand because of Jesus.
You have everything you need to see a victory. Jesus doesn’t see you through the lens of your past. He sees you through the lens of your purpose and potential

The power to help those who are helpless.
