I am not much of a football person, but I remember that there was a
particular tournament where my humble and beautiful nation – Nigeria was
playing against Brazil were down by 3 -2. I remember very well that people were
already beginning to leave as they already concluded that we had lost that
match as it was extra time already.
I can still remember my father’s friends asking him to get dressed so
they could go relax away the disappointment from the team’s performance during
that game. As they were about stepping out of the house, the ball found the
back of the net of the opponent’s team. One person shouted “Its not over until
it is over”. To cut the long story short, Nigeria gave a come back and won the
game that day by 4-3 or so.
Today I am come to tell you that it is not over yet until you win.
The woman with the twelve years issue of blood could have given up on
herself and resolved to committing suicide, but she knew that it was not over
until she won. The man by the pool of Bethesda spent 38 years waiting for an
angel to stir the water and never lost hope, because he knew that it was not
over until he won.
I don’t know that which is making you cast down your head. I don’t know
what situation you have found yourself that looks like that’s the end. I don’t care
the number of years you have been battling with that unpleasant situation. The Bible
says there is hope for a tree that if it be cut down, it shall sprout again. What
I know is that by the time it is all over, you shall be declared winner in
Jesus Name.
Your case isn’t closed until resolved. Your matter isn’t abandoned
until you matter in this world.
There is hope for you. It will never be over until you come out victorious.
Keep the faith alive. Don’t give up on yourself. Don’t even dare give up on
God. God is not done with you yet. You are soon coming out a King. The final
whistle isn’t sounding until you win in Jesus Name.
