Knowing Who Wins

My brother TVos sports on Sunday, since we are typically ministering all day, we miss the big games. So he goes back and watches them after the game is over. One particular very important football game he went to go watch, but he knew from seeing the news that his team had won the game. So in the first quarter his team fell behind. Interception, fumble. Even into the fourth quarter his team was losing. Still he was never afraid, or even stressed. Why? Well he already knew the winner, he knew that some how his team was going to win. He didn’t know how, but he did know for a fact that they would win. This is like our Christianity. Sometimes we find ourselves in the pit, in a mess, in a storm, and we sweat and stress, but really, if you read the end of the book, well you win. You may not know how God is going to do it, but put your trust in him, don’t give space for doubt and fear, instead stand firm knowing that God is bigger, he’s on your team, and He is not about the lose the war. Though set backs come, and things look bleak, Have faith, fear not. For God is your shield, your exceedingly great reward.
