We Win!

In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.  Romans 8:37


Denver QB, Tim Tebow, has dominated much of the media spotlight recently for his faith just as much as his play on the field.  Yesterday, his streak of amazing come-from-behind victories came to an end as the New England Patriots defeated the Denver Broncos.  Regardless, Tebow has only lost 2 of the games in which he has started this season and he will likely lead his team to many more victories this season.  Like any athlete that excels in their sport, if they are not constantly encouraged, their performance will eventually decline.


As Christians, this is a valuable lesson for us to learn as well.  When we listen to the feelings of doubt that God is distant, we fall trap into the lies and deceit of the enemy who wants us to live our lives feeling defeated.  When we do this, we certainly don't live like citizens of the Kingdom of God.


We must learn to live without fear-not being afraid to take risks or be bold in our faith.  Hardships will come our way and battles will be difficult, but the love and power of Jesus will always remain undefeated.  


God wants us to overcome and not be overwhelmed!
