=MORE THAN A CHAMPION=
Romans 8:37-39 (NKJV)
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved
us.
It's a great enough thing to know that you are a champion or a conqueror
through Christ, but that is not what Romans 8 says that we are. It
distinctly says that we are more than that!
I don't know what you think about yourself but you need to know what God
thinks about you today. He declares over your life and every situation that
you face that you are not just a champion, but much more. Independent of
your current feelings or situations, that is what you are and you walk in
the power of that when you dare to agree with Him.
The best example or analogy of this that I have ever heard is that of the
prize fighter and his wife. The prize fighter gets into the ring and fights
his greatest fight and wins. He is then given the paycheck for the victory
he just fought for. He gets showered, washing off the blood and sweat from
the grueling battle that just took place. He then gets dressed and goes
home. When he walks through the door his wife greets him with her lips
puckered for a kiss and her hand out for the cheque he just won and he
gladly hands it over. She is more than a conqueror! She did nothing but gets
to live in the benefits of a victory she never achieved.
Listen Champion, Jesus has fought the battle that had to be fought and won.
It was a perfect win, a total knock out, and He now invites us to live in
the victory (the pay cheque) of that fight. Don't keep trying to fight a
battle that has already been won, but make up your mind that you're going to
be "more than" and live in the victory of your prize fighting King Jesus.
Because of His perfect victory 2000 years ago, we now walk in the benefits
of His win. Today you are not just a champion or conqueror but you are more
than a conqueror. So, let that determine how you choose to live out your
life today. Remember, we walk in the footsteps of a winner.
Colossians 2:15 (NKJV)
Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of
them, triumphing over them in it.
God Bless
