Life challenges are treacherous! they make you believe that's what your existence is all about; conquering challenges. But what you truly are, is; a CHALLENGE to life. Note; you're the challenge not what life presents to you because if the devil who's the 'father of all treacherousness' is to have his way you'll be 6feet under the ground. So, the fact that you're alive is a great challenge. Have you ever seen a champion lying on the floor, of course not! He's rises with his hands raised up above his head while people cheer. Even when he's too weak to do that, someone/the coach will give assistance for all to see and know the champion.
But that's not the case with some of us today in the Christendom. We've forgotten we are the champ because our Lord Jesus fought and won the war long before we ever were conceived in our mother's womb. Remember; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it (Colosssians 2:15). Yet! some are still lying on the floor waiting to be lifted up, encouraged to fight and win life challenges. Even some has given up, before the battle began.
God called us 'more than conquerors' because we don't just win battles when God is with us, we possess all the spoils. What challenge in life is bigger than God? I haven't seen or heard of any. Even the devil himself will tell you that. Hence, his continuous troubling of the lives of the children of God by placing before us mirages of problem as insurmountable issues. But if we can be bold enough to pick up our sword and get close, we'd realize, its nothing but a won war. Now do I mean; we will have no pain, no moment of frights, no unanswered prayers, no challenges........ of course such moments will come, Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices (2 Corinthians 2:11). But you should know you are the challenge that needs to be conquered not what you're going through. Do dead men cry? You have your answer to that. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (Roman 8:31). Do not be conquered by what you've already be made to rule over. Cheers!
