The word ‘triumph’ (in Greek, ‘thriambeuo’) means ‘to conquer, to be victorious, to rise above, or to shout aloud joyfully in a triumphal procession, with songs of celebration and jubilation.’ Now thanks be to God who always leads us in a triumphal procession in Christ, and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord!
This triumphal procession is likened to the procession celebrating the triumphant Roman generals in Apostle Paul’s days, where they would parade the spoils of the war that was won, to loud cheers and shouts of triumph from the citizens in the streets.
The procession of the ‘ark of the covenant’ has started again in our time and generation, just as in the ancient days to Jerusalem. The ‘ark of the covenant’ is a 'picture' of the glory of the Lord, and Jesus Christ Himself is the King of glory (Psalm 24:7-10). The glory of the Lord is pouring out on the church and on our land like never been seen before, with great and notable miracles, signs and wonders confirming the preaching of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. We have entered this time in world history, the end-time, as been written in Malachi 4:1-6. This is the time to position and prepare ourselves for the coming glory, and for the outpouring of His Spirit and His power.
Just as in the days of King David when the ‘ark of the covenant’ was brought to Jerusalem (1 Chronicles 15:1-29) in a triumphal procession, our Lord Jesus Christ's triumphal entry to Jerusalem (Matthew 21:1-11) accompanied by shouts of "Hosanna" (meaning "Lord, help, save us!") was also a 'type' of the entrance of the glory of the Lord in this end-time.
God is the one who always leads us in triumph in Christ. We triumph not by our own strength, intelligence, or self-effort, but we triumph in Christ. Christ has already done it for us, by His finished works on the cross. On the third day after He died for us, He rose again. He has won the victory for us! Life has therefore conquered death. The enemy has been defeated. Our God is a triumphant God! This is our time to shout to God with the voice of triumph (Psalm 47:1), and this is our time to 'arise and shine', for our 'light' has already come (Isaiah 60:1).
As God leads us in triumph in Christ, let the fragrance of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord diffuse (spread) everywhere through us, in every place, wherever we go and whoever we meet, all over the world. For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14). We are seeing this prophecy coming to pass in our time and generation. Hallelujah!
