It’s Obvious

Did you watch the Super Bowl game yesterday? It was a good game; the score stayed close and the action was exciting. However, from the very first few plays, I noticed that the Eagles had the ‘wind to their backs’.

The Eagles were not supposed to win; the Patriots were by far the favorite. “It is not by might nor by power but by my Spirit says the Lord.” Yes, it is that very Scripture that I could see working in the game. I do not believe God is interested in winning and losing when it comes to sports but rather who is willing to give Him the praise.

I saw nothing but pride in the faces of the Patriots Team, and just the opposite in the Eagle players. You could tell members of the Eagles Team were Christians that took their profession seriously—that is their confession in Christ. Yes, they also played football.

When we are humble and willing to express Jesus Christ as our Savior—willing to be ridiculed for our profession of faith, God is not far away. I guess the Eagles should not have won but God honors humility, not greatness. The Eagles had God’s wind in their wings.

This is when God is watching and has your back. It is in humility alone and our faith in Jesus that miracles and wonders follow our actions. I have never been an Eagle fan but a fan of Jesus Christ; yes this is who I am and hope to always be.
