Is It God Versus The NFL Or God Is For The NFL Too?

Get out the way Satan cause God is on the throne and God is pushing forces through players to give us entertainment and more. It's Football Season here in the states, but is God for it? Of course he is if our hearts are right. There used to be debates in regards to the NFL playing during 'Church Time.' Christians stood up and said 'hey, we love Sports too; particularly in the South. But we have to get 'our praise on and going' for the true Offensive Strategist who blocks our opponents on a daily basis.' So some times have been pushed back to night times. So God made a way for Sports Lovers to go to church and then enjoy a Clash of Titans later on in the evening or perhaps night.  But of course if we are not full of idolatry, Sports is awesome. So God is everywhere. He's fighting the battles of Christians who attend NFL Games too.

We've heard of National Anthem Debates and more, but at the end of the day we should all want peace in America. We see through out the years, people have fought and been killed regarding NFL Games; but to a Christian - it's a great passionate Sport. We do feel chills and may even thank God when our favorite team catches the winning throw.  Some are cheering as the New England Patriots and the Kansas City Chiefs are kicking tail with winning streaks. Others mourn as we see some teams aren't doing as good such as the following: The Miami Dolphins and The Denver Broncos.

But we can pray for NFL Players and hope the best. We can refrain from posting death threats on their Facebook Walls as many 'trolls' have done. We can wish for the best. Some of them are perhaps Devout Christians and many are said to have been 'Prayer Warriors' as they travel to and fro on planes. Who doesn't pray on an airplane you know? But we see a certain calmness these days in players. Perhaps, there is truth behind rumors that many are calmer because of so many mass shootings and because they are dedicated to being 'still' in the sight of the Lord as we sort out thoughts of 'why and how' this happened. Some are praying for stability and peace as many may have been offended by the rejection of the National Anthem by some. We're hoping that no one gets killed as a result of so much arguing and animosity. Let's preach peace and that we should forgive and move on. We're waving hands in the air for NFL Players because they have shown a dedication for America and Christ actually. Some have rather. Others may not be Christian, but we know that God is there on the field too.

We've seen happy children cheering their favorite teams on. We're accustomed to seeing the hot dog eater cheerfully chewing and dancing away. So many NFL Players have kneeled and thanked Jesus Christ for touchdowns and wins. So we know that some have a love for Jesus. Some are Fathers, brothers and counselors. We're encouraging them as Christians because they have helped the American Economy substantially. Many have been in awe gazing at some stately stadiums as they turn into 'museums' of some sort. People have traveled from all around the world to show love at games and not just NFL Games. But college and high school football games have been exhilarating for many. We've heard of violence and gambling. But we know that in this world we will have tribulation, but we should be of good cheer. So we can pray as they slay Goliath on the field. We can be thankful for Cable and Satellite TV and say 'Lord, that was a good game.' It gets close sometimes. We're on the edge of our seats on many occasions, but we know it's all in fun. It's also their careers. Just like a star on TV, they perhaps take their jobs seriously. So let's pray for NFL Players and let's not put them above our God here in 'Christian World.' But we can give credit when due.

We can enjoy games. But let's remember Christ in our hearts as we eat Nachos, drink Pepsi sodas and Cokes, a.k.a. Coca-Colas. Let's still remember to read our Word on the Sabbath. Let's not get drawn away. Still, come to DiscipleforCHRIST.org and check Christian and Sports News. We have two links here where you can perhaps check up on stats as you enjoy your Sabbath. God is here and he's everywhere. Let's pray that he continues keeping America safe as we watch games this season. But let's always honor God. God said his breath is in all things, so he's here and there at the stadiums or arenas. Amen. Bless you!
