It's Not My Strength , Praise The Lord
Wednesday, March 7, 2012
I want to tell you how God leads me and takes part into every aspect in my life. This time,i will tell you His work through my basketball competition that I joined.
The competition was started about 1 month ago. It was about one week before opening match,I don't know why God remind me about what Kaka did at 2002 World Cup final,at that match Kaka make a goal for Brazil and he opened his jersey and show the shirt reads "I love Jesus,I belong to Jesus"(i posted story about Kaka to my blog too that time).It was so strong to me,and I asked God what should I do.Then I made shirt design reads "It's not my strength,praise The Lord" and " I love Jesus".
When I decided to make those shirt,I told one of my friend. Yah,just call her JC. I told JC how God reminded me about Kaka and i told her I would make a shirt. She strongly supported me for what I had done and support me for the competition.She said "If you win the game,God will be delighted of your action.But if even you lose,I will still congratulate you" That time,I thought rationally,last year basketball competition we didn't even through final,how could i win the competition.But,yeahh,just do it.
The competition started,I hoped there would be God's work in every game that we do. Before the match started,JC told me one thing that really encouraging me,"I know,in your game,God be with you,and no one can hit you down". I just try to give my best in every game. I'm proud of my teammate too,they're really good player and we play neck and neck to get the game. The opponents aren't weak team,they're good team too,but by God's grace finally we won all game and through final.
The final match held at 6 pm. As usual,I did my silent time in the morning and read my reflection book "Our Daily Bread". It was March 7th,but i don't know why I read the article for March 8th and the topic is "We're the winner". After read it,I realized that I didn't read the article for that day. That time i wondered,is it God's sign for me that i will win the game today or just a coincidence. But I didn't get anything after it. Then,at 10 am i went to prayer alliance at church. I was amazed when the worship topic is about when God be with us,no one can hit us down. Suddenly i remembered it was what JC said before competition started. Then i have bigger faith to win the game that night.
That was March 7th,6 pm. Before the match I thought we would win the game surely. And the game started. I don't know why when the game started, we didn't play well. We played without confidence anymore.And at the half of first quarter,i got my foot bones very hurt and i couldn't run and jump well. The result oh first quarter we lose 10 points. All team member gave support each other and started the second quarter. Our performance didn't get better yet,and the second quarter ended. We lose 14 points.
At the break between second quarter and third quarter,i started to pray. How can catch up 14 points and beside it i can't play well,my foot is extremely hurt. God put it strongly in my heart,He reminded me what JC said, "In your game,God be with you,and no one can hit you down". It gave me so much courage and new hope. I said to my teammate,we surely win the game!
Third quarter started,I was surprised with what happened. I thought after i prayed there would be such surprising miracle and we play well and leading the score. Nothing at all,we play as bad as before,and we lose 20 points. When we lose 20 points, I think it's rather impossible to get the game. But I just thought it in myself,I didn't tell anyone to keep they spirit on.When my hope almost died, God said to me "step by step,one by one". And He gave me wisdom,what strategy we had to apply.I told to my teammate what I've got,"step by step,one by one",play patiently. And I told strategy that God showed to me clearly,i told 2 people had to press the opponent's ball holder,1 person stay at the middle of the field to cut the passing,and 2 people stay at the back to guard the other players.Now,i don't even know how can i know that strategy because I've not ever learned that strategy before. It's surely not my ingenuity,it's the wisdom from God.
The last quarter started,and as I thought before,we played much better than before. We play patiently,scoring one by one,and every person do their task perfectly. And the strategy worked perfectly.Last 2 minutes,finally we caught up the score 45-45,we got new hope. And the supporters are
incredible too,they supported us with full spirit. It really helped us to burn our spirit too. They shout our name one by one to spirit us.And like in the movie,last minute we leaded the score,then the result is 56-48 for our victory.
This is the time that I had been waiting for,i took of my jersey and show shirt that I've prepared before reads "It's not my strength, PRAISE THE LORD".
What I learn from this moment:
1. When we take God as our first,He surely take part of what we do.
2. Our team lead the score 1 minute before the match end. God is never too fast and He is never too late to help us.Perfect in His time!
3. JC words really encourage me when I'm down.As i said,if i win the game,first i will thank God,and the second one i will thank you! As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another
4. He tell me some advise and what strategy we have to apply CLEARLY. God is creative and the source of inspiration. God doesn't just tell us the way, but He show us the way.
5. My foot bone was extremely hurt. Even now,when i'm writing,it's very hurt. But yesterday,at third and last quarter I didn't feel it. The miracle is real!God strengthen us in our weakness.
