Bible Reference: ‘They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony…’ (Rev 12:11 NKJV)
I remembered watching a boxing match on television sometimes ago. It was a twelve-round title match, and the boxer from Mexico was pummelling the boxer from United States. Every time the American boxer moved forward to fight, the other boxer pounded him.
By the sixth round, the U.S. boxer was getting beaten badly, and at the end of the round, he stumbled back into his corner, sat down on a stool, and sagged as if he were a sack of potatoes. Then I saw something happen. In seconds, several men went to work on him. One grabbed a bucket of water and doused him with it. The next grabbed a soaking-wet sponge and squeezed water all over his face. Another applied ointment to soothe his wounds.
These men were all talking to him at once, and they were rubbing him down as they talked. Even though he was getting trounced, they were telling him, “You can do this. You can get back out there. You’re strong! You’re better than he is!” One of the men said, “Keep your left hook, okay? Keep your left hook. He’s a slow left. You can get him with that left.” After about two minutes, the boxer jumped up, saying, “Yeah! Oh, yeah!” He ran back out there, and everything changed in the seventh round.
Guess who won the fight? The one who had been about to quit in the sixth round won the fight and received the prize. There was blood everywhere, but under that blood was the champion. When he won the decision, all his strength came back. He ran around the room screaming. When you win, you forget all the pounding you received during the fight.
Sometimes, you will get beaten up pretty badly in life, but God is using today’s devotional to tell you to Stay In The Fight. Fight until you feel the joy of victory. When you think you’re going to lose, and you stumble back into the corner of life, the Lord will come and pour the cool water of His Word on your head. He will take the ointment of the Holy Spirit and bring healing to your wounds. He will rub life back into your spirit so you can jump back out and say, “Hey! Come on Life!”
Life will be tough. In fact you might have had a rough ride from January up till now. Your might be travelling through lonely and windy path in life but this August, get back out there and start throwing blows. Keep your left up. Be persistent and soon you will feel the joy of victory!
Happy new month!!!
