John 16:33 these things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might
have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good
cheer; I have overcome the world.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ex 34, John 13, Prov 10, Eph 3
A
champion is the fellow that emerges a victor in a challenge, contest or
competition. Long before you were born, Jesus has already overcome the
world for you. You have already emerged a victor , long before that
challenge you are facing. Romans 8:37 says nay, in all these things we
are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Whether you believe
it or not, you are not a failure. Things don’t always go wrong for you;
you are not a victim of circumstances ; something is not wrong with you
;the world is not always against you, do not accept this lie from the
pit of hell. You have already secured victory over failure, Deuteronomy
28:13 says you shall be the head, not the tail. Your future is bright,
Isaiah 3:10 says say to the righteous it shall be well with him. You
healing is guaranteed, Isaiah 65:20 says there shall be no more thence
an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the
child shall die an hundreds years old.We are champions because Jesus
overcame the world for us. I read a Facebook status which says
Christians are defending champions; we are not fighting for victory over
the devil, we are fighting to retain in our victory .
The
question is how can I retain my victory in Christ? Firstly, live a
life of holiness. Hebrews 12:14 says without holiness, no man shall see
the Lord. Jeremiah 5:25 says your iniquities have turned these things,
and your sins have withholden good things from you. Secondly, believe in
the Lord. Romans 10:10 says for with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness. Mark 9:23 says all things are possible to them that
belief. According to Hebrews 3:19, unbelief can shut the door of
breakthrough on a man. Thirdly, confess your victory. Romans 10:10 says
with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Numbers 14:28 says Say
unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in
mine ears, so will I do to you. Joel 3:10 says let the weak say I am
strong. Confess what you want not what you are going through. Begin to
confess your victory over that challenges you are going through.
KEYWORD:
Christians are defending champions; we are not fighting for victory
over the devil, we are fighting to retain in our victory.
