TOPIC: THE SONGS OF THE OVERCOMER
Preacher: Pastor Sola Adewunmi
An overcomer is not necessarily the strongest, the most connected, the most favoured, or even the most skilled. The true overcomer is the one who has the strongest Ally—Jesus Christ. Victory is not in our human ability, but in His unfailing strength. As Revelation 12:11 declares, “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” Our words—spoken in faith—become powerful declarations that shape our tomorrow.
By definition, an overcomer is one who rises above every trial, challenge, and opposition. A song, on the other hand, is the outflow of the heart—it can carry sorrow, lamentation, joy, praise, or hope. Songs have the power to open the heavens, shift atmospheres, and prepare the way for breakthrough.
Therefore, the song of an overcomer must carry these key elements:
A Song of Gratitude: True overcomers are thankful in all circumstances. Gratitude is the language of faith—it announces that the battle is already won. As 1 John 4:4 reminds us, “Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.” And Romans 8:35–37 assures us that nothing—tribulation, distress, persecution—can separate us from the love of Christ. We don’t win because we pray longer than others, but because His love makes us more than conquerors.
A Song of Dependence on God: David’s story is a perfect example. When he rescued the lamb from the lion and the bear, and when he faced Goliath, he didn’t boast in his own strength. His confidence was in the Lord who had delivered him before, and who would deliver him again. Like David, our song must confess daily: “The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer.” We must lean completely on the strength of our Almighty Ally.
A Song of Hope: Being an overcomer does not mean life will be free of trials—it means we face challenges with unshakable assurance of victory. Psalm 34:1 says, “I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Even in dark valleys, our hope is anchored in Christ who never fails.
A Song of Confidence in Who We Are: Overcomers know their identity in Christ. We are chosen, redeemed, and empowered to reign in life. Numbers 13:31 warns us about the danger of self-defeat through negative words. Our utterances carry prophetic weight—what we speak shapes our reality. Therefore, let our declarations be filled with faith: “We are more than able to possess the land and deliver victory for generations to come!”
As overcomers, our song must rise from a heart overflowing with gratitude, anchored in trust, shining with hope, and resounding in confidence. No matter the storm, we sing because we know the outcome—victory in Christ Jesus!
