Faith Is The Victory The Gospel In Song
2
At The Heart Of Our Faith
Philippians 4: I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. 1 John 5:4 -- For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

1 – Faith is the Victory 1. Encamped along the hills of light,
Ye Christian soldiers, rise, And press the battle ere the night Shall veil the glowing skies. Against the foe in vales below Let all our strength be hurled; Faith is the victory, we know, That overcomes the world. Words by: John H. Yates Music by: Ira D. Sankey © 2001 The Paperless Hymnal™

2 – Faith is the Victory 2. His banner over us is love,
Our sword the Word of God; We tread the road the saints above With shouts of triumph trod. By faith they, like a whirlwind's breath, Swept on o'er every field; The faith by which they conquered death Is still our shining shield. Words by: John H. Yates Music by: Ira D.

3 – Faith is the Victory 3. On every hand the foe we find
Drawn up in dread array; Let tents of ease be left behind, And onward to the fray. Salvation's helmet on each head, With truth all girt about, The earth shall tremble 'neath our tread, And echo with our shout. Words by: John H. Yates Music by: Ira D. Sankey © 2001 The Paperless Hymnal™

4 – Faith is the Victory 4. To him that overcomes the foe
White raiment shall be given; Be-fore the angels he shall know His name confessed in Heaven; Then onward from the hills of light, Our hearts with love aflame; We'll vanquish all the hosts of night, In Jesus' conquering name.

Our Mission Encamped along the hills of light…press the battle ere the night…. 1 Timothy 6:16 – “…who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen. We are children of the God of Light
16
John 9:4 We must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work.
17
We Are Christian Soldiers
2 Timothy 2:1-3 --You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
18
We Are Soldiers With Foes
1 Peter 5:8 --Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
19
Light vs. Night; Hill vs. Vale
Our fight is for all things good, right, righteous, moral, upright, godly. We are children of the day – people of the light. We are hilltop dwellers. Satan exercises his deception in the darkness, the night, the dark valley and back alley.
20
Our Weapons Banner of Love
Probably from Song of Solomon 2:4 – “…his banner over me is love.” Depends on a spiritualizing approach to the Song of Solomon. But, we cannot doubt the love of God toward us.
21
Ephesians 6:11-17 Second and Third stanzas mention the armor of the Lord. Belt of truth Buckler (breastplate) of righteousness Feet shod with gospel of peace Shield of faith Helmet of salvation Sword of the Spirit – word of God
22
The Cloud of Witnesses “We tread the road the saints above with shouts of triumph trod….” Hebrews 12:1 – “Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us….”
23
The Power of Our Shout and Tread
Does the enemy hear our rousing shout? Does the earth tremble beneath our marching feet? Are we a disciplined army?
24
Our Victory To him that overcomes the foe…
Revelation 6:11 --And there was given to each of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for a little while longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been, would be completed also.
25
Revelation 3:5 He who overcomes will thus be clothed in white garments; and I will not erase his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.
26
We’ll vanquish all the hosts of night…
In Jesus’ conquering name!
