The Comeback

"Inside of a ring  or out, ain't nothing wrong with going down. Its staying down that's wrong." - Muhammad Ali 

There are two distinct times when a person is most likely to quit, after a failure or a victory. Failure is a delay,  a mere detour to our victories. The scripture reminds us "though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again. The key is not to wallow in your defeat,  but to remember that you may be down but not out.

Psalm 37:24 states the steps of a righteous man are ordered of the Lord...... though he fall he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord upholds him with his hand

A champion will always set his course for a victory, but defeat and failure are sometimes inevitable this is an opportunity for a major comeback.

"Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with an extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even."- Muhammad Ali

  Every trial, every failure is an opportunity to be complete (victorious), but we will only be crowned champion when we learn from from our defeats and emerge victorious from the rematch.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers whenever you face trials of many kinds .... so that you may be mature and complete - James 1:2.

David the shepherd boy spoke of defeating a lion and a bear (the largest land based carnivore), your opponents become stronger as your victories continue and then he (David) saw an opportunity to defeat Goliath (a man).

BE THAT CHAMPION!!!.
