The Ultimate Bowl

Tonight's a big night. Millions of people are cheering for their favorite football team. There are people gathered at friends and families' houses; there's people even watching it at their churches. Crowds are cheering, yelling, screaming for their favorite team to win.. It's intense. The atmosphere is just so thick that the crowds are just wild! For one night in the year, practically the entire world is watching this big-time event...

Many years ago, there was a crowd just like this. However, it was different. They mocked him. The atmosphere was thick with mockery and judgment. He carried a cross.. a crown of thorns put on his head. They nailed him to that tree and pierced a sword in his side..

"Above his head they put the charge against him, which read: 'This is Jesus, the king of the Jews.'" -Matt 27:37

The world rejected him. Heaven and hell watched closely. The demons cheered, the angels stood silently, watching. The king had died. Hell was happy, for they had won. Heaven stood still, waiting.
Just as in the last moments of the Super Bowl, people will be waiting; the world silent. Who will win? I do not know who will win the Super Bowl this year. But one thing I DO know, is that three days after his death so long ago, Jesus Christ the King of Kings rose. Hell was stunned. The angels rejoiced. How much more should we celebrate that our Lord and Savior has conquered Death, Hell and the Grave?? Jesus is the winner of all... and I believe that all of Heaven rejoiced when he rose from the grave.. I think that we should rejoice even more than when our favorite team wins the Super Bowl! Our king is ALIVE! And he lives in each and every one of us. And he has won the Ultimate Bowl!* :)

God Bless.
