Most of us like to hear stories about big comebacks from adversity. We listen to them and secretly place ourselves in the middle of the story. We apply the details of the story to our own lives.
This might be like a bandage for our own pain and suffering, or a cup of coffee to our faded dreams. The truth is that we have a comeback God, who will triumph over death, persecution, pain, and sorrow. God overcame legions in a mocking world that said it’s impossible. Jesus was the greatest overcomer in the universe that overcame every kind of problem that was stacked against him. Jesus has placed his Holy Spirit in us to overcome any adversity, difficulty, or accusation. We, yes you, are part of His comeback kids that will amaze the unbelieving and cynical world that was carefully assembled and knit together by the devil himself.
You were created to be reset, to be renewed, to be created, to be restored over any and all difficulties. You are his champions. You are his relentless army that will display countless stories of victory over death and hopelessness. You are his shining light in the darkness. You are his children that refused to lose or give up. A crowd of witnesses is cheering you on with the mighty King in the midst of them. Jesus has justice and recompense for our pain and sorrow. This is like a gift wrapped package that will never run out until your destiny is completed. It doesn’t matter how you feel about your situation. It matters what God has decided about it. What he has decided is a platter of victory wrapped with echoes of praise for who he is, and what you have accomplished. Every word the Lord has spoken must be fulfilled completely.
He says, you will come back from your adversity. You will rise again over your struggles and situations. You will have victory over your circumstances. Our service to King Jesus will be remembered forever in the annals of the book of your life. Come and accept His invitation to celebrate your victory in the kingdom of God. It is there we will share our comeback stories together forever.
