He alone is THE CHAMPION!

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world . . . . our faith. (1 John 5:4)

Super Sunday is here. Last evening I heard many pro football players thanking family, friends, coaches and others for their awards. Some however let the world know that Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh, Emmanuel, was the driving force behind their talents. He alone is THE CHAMPION!

In then past week we all have been bombarded with the news of tragic deaths. Many are lauding the lives lived and the people who were touched and inspired. Kids and adults are wearing jerseys and taking jump shots.

Yet how many are claiming Jesus Christ as King? How many are testifying to be at peace knowing they are in His arms for eternity? No matter victory or defeat here on earth, we have assurance that Jesus has the final victory! Whoever lifts the Lombardi today will be declared "champion". Yet the battle lives on..... Life is not a game.

Are you a winner? Have you claimed Jesus as Lord and Savior in your life? It must be done while we yet live! Tomorrow may be too late, regardless of ones age!

“O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.  But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.(1 Corinthians 15:55-57)
