God Loves A Champion

By Tony Drake

Nothing is impossible for God

Frustrated, because everything I tried to do on my own just wasn't panning out. Disappointed, because I knew I had the answers to life's question. But lo and behold, once again I was wrong as two left shoes. Something was missing, and I just couldn't figure it out. I frowned on the thought of asking anyone for advice. Just the thought of being talked about and laughed at behind my back weren't thoughts I needed on my mind at this time.

On the outside, everything concerning me looked just fine, but on the inside, I was broken and I needed some fixing. I needed some help. Just when I was on the edge of throwing in the towel and calling it quits of trying to find myself, my purpose in life.

I got the call to join the team. I answered the call, and the soft but faint voice told me that my prayers have been heard and answered. You will have an assignment, a purpose to fulfill. But first, you must complete your training. So my question was, what training do I have to do?

You will have to give God something to work with because God loves a champion.

About the Author

Preface

If you are reading this book, guess what? It is not by chance. Your spirit has connected with the spirit of the author through divine contact, and you have the spirit of a champion living on the inside of you. And right now at this appointed time, God has called for your spirit to wake up so that the champion inside you will come forth and shake the world upside down.

The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few. The world offers a handsome reward to those who are willing to keep the people in the dark far from the truth—the truth of knowing who God is and why he loves us so much. The enemy's plan is to destroy God's creation, trying his best to convince the people that there is no God and we are our own gods by living our lives by our own rules and our own luck. The mission of the evil one is to keep convincing the people to chase the pipe dream—the so-called American dream, which I personally call the sleeper's dream. Chasing your feeling, chasing the wants of the flesh.

But the truth of the matter is, God offers a bigger and everlasting reward to those who are not ashamed of him openly confessing that he is the head of their life, willing to make a stand and die to the desires of the flesh. Making a stand to carry the torch of the good news of Jesus Christ is going to be one of the most challenged decision you will ever make in life.

Carry the torch of life—as the title of this book states, God loves a champion—because he really does. The bible talks about many champions who were chosen by God to serve and protect the people with uncompromising obedience to the voice of God, willing to lay down their own lives for God and the love of the people.

A spirit not everyone has or is willing to possess

The gift of being a champion comes from God, and the gift is not just for the receiver but for everyone around the chosen one. The gift is for God's purpose and his will alone. As one of God's champion, upon answering the call upon your life, you will have an assignment to fulfill: your life is not your own anymore as it belongs to the Lord and his purpose of why you were chosen to be a champion.

I would have never imagined that I would one day spend three years of my life to write a book to inspire others to wake up and seek out God's purpose in their life. The Holy Spirit would not let me rest until I picked up my pen and started writing this book, putting down on paper the words that were given to me that would uplift God's people.

A quote from Bishop TD Jakes' Get Ready, Get Ready, Get Ready.

This book was written to give you a clear definition of the signs that you might have noticed within yourself. However, you were not comfortable with talking to no one about these strange feelings and new signs that you couldn't explain, so you just keep quiet about this part of your life—your newfound secret. As you embark on your search for your purpose in life as one of God's champions, always remember the promise that God made to those who choose to keep him first. I'll never leave you nor forsake you. God's people, if you are fit for the kingdom, walk with me as we walk out our journey together as God's chosen champions.

Let us be a beacon of light to those in the dark. Let us put on the armor of God, daily prepared to be a soldier in God's army. We choose life in Christ with no other option. We must fight for this new generation so that Christ's death on the cross does not get lost in the shuffle of life. God's plan to save mankind from the devil is our mission. As his chosen champions of this generation, we will carry the torch till it's time to pass it on, and we will spread the news of the gospel till the world come to know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Grow to love God just as we did through the men and women of God before us.

Acknowledgments

First of all, I would like to thank God for all that he has done in the past, present, and future. I would like to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because through him, we have been saved by grace, and I would like to thank the Holy Spirit for his spiritual guidance throughout my journey with my life in Christ. I am thankful for the anointing, the wisdom, the understanding, the discernment, and above all, the love God has shown me and continues to show me. I am that chosen vessel, the champion that God has appointed for this era to go out and bring others to the knowledge of Jesus Christ and also the love God has for his people.

There are some special people who need to be mentioned because you all were essential in one way or another with your words of encouragement, your lives exemplifying the holy characteristics of God's people. And I truly thank God
