Trump!
For
we walk by faith, not by sight.
II
Corinthians 5:7
• Upper hand . .

• Iron hand . .

• Controlling
hand . . .
When playing cards, your trump card is
something powerful that you can use to get the advantage over your opponent.
Most of the time the other player is thrown for a loop when the trump card is
played.
The
devil has been throwing down “trump” cards for a long time trying to kill,
steal, and destroy us. However, if we look very,
very closely, we’ll see that his cards are “marked.” Whoa!
He’s
playing with a bogus deck. They’re packed with tricks and lies. For instance, he
wants us to think we are less than who we are. He wants us to believe the
promises of God are for someone else and not for us. He’s thrilled when we
shrink into a mental hole and bury our gifts and talents under piles and piles
of insecurities.
Devil, your hand has been EXPOSED. You see,
we’re going to fulfill the call God has on our lives. You don’t hold all the
cards. Your house of cards has fallen down. And speaking of cards . . . Let’s Play Some!
Disclaimer: The game we are about to play is not
gambling, because putting your Trust, Hope, and Faith in the Word of God is a
SURE Thing.
Christians’ Turn:
You
lied, devil, and told us we’re not smart enough to complete the will of God on
our lives. Trump! God said that He
will take the foolish things to confound the wise (I Corinthians 1:27). You
said we don’t have enough financial backing to complete our dreams. Trump! God said, in Philippians 4:19,
that He will supply all our needs. You keep telling us that we’re either too
old or too young to make a positive difference in the world. Trump! God said that nothing is
impossible if we believe in Him (Matthew 17:20). You said God won’t answer our
prayers. Trump! Well, God said He
would (I John 5:14-15). You told us that we will never be healed. Trump! By His stripes, we were healed (I
Peter 2:24).
Whatever evil card you throw down . . . We’ll Trump It!
