During this time of year our televisions are saturated with basketball. It's March Madness and the madness begins prior to the teams even taking the court. We get in a frenzy in our office pools in filling out our brackets and depicting who are our favorites to advance to the Final Four and ultimately, the championship.
Well, for those of us who have been Saved, we've been given an UNFAIR ADVANTAGE! Unlike all other teams that we will have to contend with, we have an extra player on the court that causes us to triumph, giving us the victory every time! When we get tired, He's still going! When we miss a shot, He's there to tip it back in for us! When we need a strong defense, He is the ultimate defender!
The game has been rigged. There's an extra player on your team! Yeah, it's UNFAIR but so is our opponent who will stop at nothing to cheat us out of our victory; trick us out of our victory; and steal our opportunity to compete for the prize!
Today know that you have the ADVANTAGE, utilize it!!
"Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ" (2 Corinthians 2:14a NKJV)
