As I was going about my morning I heard an announcement that said, “Let the games begin.” 

Then I saw the past season that many have been through like the training and grueling work that goes on for Olympic athletes as they approach the games.

Then I saw the New Years celebrations like the “Opening Ceremonies” of the Olympic Games. Today the games begin and those who have trained are well conditioned and ready to see many victories. Gold medals are polished and ready to be presented. 

The interesting thing is that rest is key for these games. Trust and rest that the victory has already been secured for you. 

Do not fear the competition because you have the Holy Spirit as your strength. I hear Him saying,

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.””

‭‭Joshua‬ ‭1:9‬ ‭NIV‬

I also am hearing,

“So he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty.”

‭‭Zechariah‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The Spirit is upon you! It is not the strength of man that will secure your victory but the Spirit of the Lord within you! The “gold” belongs to the Sons of the Almighty. 

Let the games begin!!
