Ready: 

If He snatches something, who can stop Him? Who can ask Him, “What are you doing?” — Job 9:12

Set: 

During football, soccer, and hockey games, the course of the game can change quickly. Success is often the result of an interception that leads to a score and victory. God can also intercept our life. When we think that everything is going wrong, God finds a way to get our attention. It may be by a circumstance or someone He strategically puts in our life. The next time you see a defensive player intercept a ball or a puck, watch and see what happens next. They are congratulated by their teammates and the change of momentum will often lead to a score and victory. When it is needed, don’t be surprised if God intercepts your life.

Go: 

1. Name situations or plays in games that change the momentum.
2. What are circumstances in your life that suddenly turned around?
3. What explanation do you have for a sudden change of events?

Workout: 

Extra Reading: Proverbs 3:5; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 1 John 5:4

Overtime: 

Lord, thank You for the grace and mercy that You have given to me in such abundance. Thank You for being strong when I am weak and for overcoming all obstacles in my life. Amen.
