Let’s pretend for a minute that life is a game and our Father is cheering us on. What might that sound like? Imagine God cupping His hands around his mouth and shouting these things for you…
You are my child! (Galatians 3:26)
My spirit is in you! (I Corinthians 6:19) That's serious "superhero," better-than-enhancment-training kind of power!!!
You will do good things! (Ephesians 2:10)
You are forgiven! (I John 1:9) No mistake in the game is too big.
I love you! (Romans 5:8)
You don’t belong here! (LOL - Philippians 3:20) Ok, lets face it, we have all had those Beam-me-up-Scotty moments when we just want to get out of a situation… Someday =]
You are an heir to my kingdom! (Romans 8:17) WooHoo!!! Better than a gold medal, trophy, ring, prize money…
You can do all things! (Romans 8:28)
The evil one can’t touch you! (I John 5:18) Take that opposition!!!
You will be triumphant! (Corinthians 2:14) YES!!! Nothing like knowing the outcome of the game =]
I don’t know about you, but when I imagine God cupping His hands around his mouth and shouting those things, my heart skips a beat in joy and it is hard not to smile, be encouraged, and feel confident. Isn’t that what cheering should do?
So, today I encourage you to listen to your Father’s cheers for you despite the score of the game or how you are performing in life at the moment. And, I encourage you to cheer for others in His likeness.
Update - Araella is listening to His cheers and walking in those promises daily. She is also fortunate to have your cheering continue to echo in her life as she navigates studies as a nursing student and allocates overflowing joy to friends and activities at university. She continues to take supplements based on blood work, avoid processed sugar, and prioritize sleep (most of the time). I will write a more detailed update when I have more details to report. Until then we are filled with thanksgiving for undeserved blessings, healing, mercy and grace. God is so good.
