New York Giants fans are very pleased tonight because their team won. Each fan feels like a winner but not a single fan played in the game. You are part of a winning team, you aren’t sitting in the stands eating hotdogs, but you are engaged in the action. Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. 1 Cor. 12:27 (NIV) We are the Body of Christ, the Church, and we share in the victory of Christ over death and sin. The scoreboard shows us as the winner. Jesus rose from the grave and defeated death and the penalty of sin. He gave that hard-won victory to those who will believe in Him, the church. As the New York Giant fans celebrate let us remember that every Sunday is our celebration day. We share in the victory and therefore celebrate with each other in God’s house. “See what God has done! Amen!” Today may be one of the worst days of your life and you may have tears. Just remember that the score is already posted, verified and in the record books – The Lamb Wins. Your Heavenly Father loves you and has your home prepared. Today is just a day in the journey so pass through it with your head high and your faith intact for you share in the victory of all victories.
