Heads, I Win!

What captain of a football team would not like to know, before he calls the toss, whether it will be heads or tails? By calling it right at the beginning of the game, he may just determine the outcome of it. That one call could decide defeat or victory.

There is no “may” win in determining the Christian’s outcome in the game of life. We can be certain, if we choose “heads,” we’ll win. God, speaking to His people in Deuteronomy chapter twenty-eight, tells them that if they will live for Him, then He will set them on high, above all others on earth. In verse thirteen, He promises us “And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath.”

PRAYER: Dear Lord, how I thank Thee that, at the beginning of the game, all those many years ago, when calling the toss, I chose “heads.” From that time to this, the outcome has always been certain. As my dear friend Mark Andrews always says, “It’s good to be on the winning team!” Amen Mark.
