The School of the Seers
By Jonathan Welton
p177-8 It is important to grasp the difference between two specific words: victory and triumph, e.g., at a soccer game when the end of the game comes, the team with the most goals wins and the winning team has achieved victory. Triumph is the celebration in the streets, the pubs, and the workplace. Triumph is the jumping up and down, the yelling and the obnoxious, grandiose boasting that occurs in the face of the losing opponent. We are not still fighting a battle against satan and we are not looking for victory; we are enforcing and reveling in the victory that is already ours; we are triumphing in our King Jesus. "He always leads us in triumph in Christ Jesus..." 2 Cor 2:14
p178 We know that satan wants the Church to think that she is fighting him, because he does not want the Church to understand that he has been defeated. We are currently on earth as ambassadors (2 Cor 5:20/Ep 6:19-20) enforcing and advancing the application of Jesus' victory.
p179 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, He made a public spectable of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
