You Win!

It’s like the scene in The Lion King when Scar had Simba hanging over a cliff. Or the one in The Matrix when Neo appeared to be dead. We can even take it back to when Sho ‘Nuff held Leroy’s head under water in The Last Dragon.

All of these characters were at their breaking point. They were fighting their ultimate enemy and seemingly failing.

Right now you are in a battle. Maybe it feels like the ultimate fight. You are facing your greatest trial, and it seems like it’s going to win. Before you give in, let me remind you: You are more than a conqueror!

You are a child of the Great God! You were made in His image and likeness. He gave you the keys to the kingdom. He gave you power over the enemy. Use it!

Don’t believe the hype! Don’t believe the lies the devil’s whispering. If you have to close your eyes to how it looks, shut them tight! Hang in there! If God is for you, who can be against you?

You have to believe God’s Word and stand firm.

Grit your teeth and remember that at your greatest point of pressure, you are about to receive your greatest breakthrough. If you give in, you’ll never taste the thrill of victory and will have to settle for defeat. Why settle when God has already told you that you’re going to win?

So, jump back over the cliff like Simba, find a way to breathe again like Neo, and put on your spiritual “glow” like Leroy. Keep on fighting! You’re the hero in the story of your life! You Will Win!

Verse of the Day: …in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Romans 8:37

Btw: I know I have to get some better movie examples. But it's the point that's important, people. The point!
