THE FOOTBALL MATCH!
Bible Text: Ecclesiastes 9:4
A man went to watch a local football match and there he saw this little boy who sat beside him, and then, he asked him, “what is the score? With a smiling face, the boy replied, “they are leading us 3-0”. The man was so curious that he had to tell the boy, “But you don’t seem to be discouraged”. This time, the boy looked with a puzzled face and said, “Why should I be discouraged when the referee hasn’t blown the final whistle?
Beloved, our lives are like the football match, you may be down by whatever score from the 1st half (January-June), but because the match hasn’t ended (December 31) and moreover, because better is the end of a thing.. (Ecclesiastes 7:8), then this 2nd half, you shall bounce back, in Jesus’ name. Therefore, no matter what you are passing through now, remember, “everything has an expiry date, even our problems”. Hence, never ever give up but rather, be encouraged by God’s promises for you (Jeremiah 29:11)
Jesus is the chief ref, if you accept Him, you can be assured of a glorious future and eternity (Colossians 1:27). Be born Again!
PRAYER
Please read: Isaiah 43:2 and John 16:33
1. Heavenly Father, in the football match of life, please uphold me to the end.
2. Ask for God’s mercy for a fruitful week.
GOD BLESS YOU!
