THE SECRET WEAPON
May 15, 2022“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” – Isaiah 41:10
Years ago, when my wife and I lived in Houston, Baylor University had a great football team.
They absolutely stormed through the Southwest Conference that year.
But late in the season, the Baylor players were discouraged when they had a shocking loss to an unranked team. Their hopes for a great season were further threatened because they were scheduled to play perennial powerhouse, Arkansas, the following week.
So, Baylor’s head coach pulled out a secret weapon. He invited a former team member, one that had been paralyzed in a freak football accident earlier in the season, to speak to the discouraged players.
This player sat in a wheelchair before them as they gathered in the locker room before the game. First, he thanked his teammates for their prayers and support as he faced his ordeal. Then, referring to their loss the week before, he declared, “Guys, you’ve got to turn a setback into a comeback.”
With that bold declaration, he slowly rose from the wheelchair and took a step forward, to the shock and amazement of his teammates. Amidst cheers and tears, they ran out onto the field and whipped the tar out of Arkansas. Those Razorbacks didn’t know what hit them! They didn’t know that they were the victims of Baylor’s secret weapon – turning what seemed impossible into victory.
What “impossibilities” are you facing today? God’s power and strength are available to help us all turn an impossibility into a victory.
After all, the “impossibility” of the cross was followed by the “victory” of the resurrection!
