But when my Champion stepped in and engaged in the challenges and conflicts of my life, I began to walk in victory. For me there is no greater hero, no greater Champion than Jesus. He for me, He is the all time, undisputed, undefeated Champion of love! He for me, Jesus is the Champion of the world!
Psalm 188:5 says this “God’s now at my side and I’m not afraid; who would dare lay a hand on me? God’s my strong champion “. The Bible also says in Isaiah 60:8 ” You’ll know that I, God, am your Savior, your Redeemer, Champion of Jacob. I’ll give you only the best “. (Message)
Jesus set forth a mighty showing as “The Champ” in the spirit realm, even as He did while here on Earth. The Bible says that in doing so, He was able to strip Satan and demons of all authority over humans. (Colossians 2:15; Hebrews 2:14)
That authority has now been given to His followers. (Luke 10:19) All who believe in “The Champ” can now become “A Champ” over their own circumstances. Jesus is the ultimate champion! And when we cast our lot with Him, He assures us that the victory is already won on our behalf.
So the next time you find yourself in a full nelson up against the wall of despair, claim Jesus as your champion. As Paul declares, you may be “struck down, but not destroyed” (2 Corinthians 4:9). Since Jesus won the battle at Calvary, you are now entitled to share in the spoils of His victory. Thanks to Jesus, the word defeat is not in our vocabulary! Let us worship Him for being our Champion!
