Devotional Week - Day 5


Heart of a Champion Devotional
Day 5 - Victor

But thanks be to God, who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 15:57

Definition of Victor: a person who defeats an enemy, a winner

Wanting to win is a big part of sports. When the game begins, so does the race towards victory. Points are scored and eventually the scoreboard declares a winner. You’re either victorious or defeated. Usually as a season goes by, you experience both.

There is one who’s never walked through a loss – Jesus! He is the Victor! We don’t know if He ever played a sport, but the Bible tells us He’s won a battle! Friend, He defeated death!
When we confess Him as Lord and Savior, we gain the victory as well. Trusting in Jesus is a win for us. We won’t get a medal or trophy, but we will experience abundant life on earth and gain an eternal home in heaven! 

What is the biggest victory you have won?



Have you experienced the victory of Jesus?



Jesus, I’m so grateful for your victory. Win or lose in athletics may I always rejoice in what You have done. In your name, Amen.

Work-Out – Read Romans 10:9. Have you done this? If not, will you do it today?
