A Warrior With No Peer

We are inspired by epic war stories. Great battles over time become so epic, they almost seem a part of myth. We put warriors on a pedestal and usually, rightly so. They make it possible for the rest of us to live in peace and freedom.

Have you ever considered there is only one perfect warrior? His name is Jesus.

1 John 5:4 says, “For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.”

From King Leonidas to Oliver Cromwell to George Washington, warriors have led their people to freedom. All were epic, all pivotal people in history.

And none hold a candle to our King Jesus. He is the ultimate warrior, the One that came to this world to rescue all of it. His sacrifice on the cross waged war on the enemy of our souls, and He won the final victory.

He has charged us as believers with the task of telling others about Him. Our Ultimate Warrior is calling us to make disciples in His name. If you want to be inspired by someone, be inspired by the Warrior that has no peer.

Let’s pray. 

Lord, Your Son Jesus did battle for us long ago. Thank you for His victory! In Jesus’ name, amen.
