Born To Win
song focus: IT'S ALRIGHT
That's you! You are born to win and all the losing you've piled up in the "backyard" of your life can't change that truth. You are "born to win". In the book of Genesis 1:26 "God said, Let Us make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth." God is a winner and you are made in His image. He designed you to have authority and dominion. God designed you to win and that's why something inside you hates to lose. You weren't made for it.
Look at Adam the first man. When he sinned in Genesis chapter 3 he rebelled against God and brought spiritual death on himself but it still took 930 years for him to die (Genesis 5:5). The curse, sin and sickness are constantly acting like spiritual gravity pulling you to a losing stop. That sinful nature you inherited from your ultra-great grand daddy Adam is working against your design.
Jesus said in John 3:3 that "Unless a person is born again he cannot see or experience the Kingdom of God". The Kingdom of God is basically God's way of doing things and being right. Winning! But back in chapter 1:12 it says, "To as many as received Jesus, to them He gave the power to be the children of God". Ha! Just when the devil thought he broke Adam's design for all of eternity, God sent the second Adam (Jesus) and He bought us back our birthright. In Jesus we have that winning spiritual DNA. If you've put your trust in Jesus, you have got a spiritual blood transfusion. Galatians 2:20 says, "It's no longer I that liveth but Christ that liveth in me."
Humanity has had thousands of years to be deceived into accepting life under the curse as the norm. It's not. Sin, sickness, failure, defeat and death have nothing to do with what you were designed for. John 3:6 says "What is born of the flesh is flesh; and what is born of the Spirit is spirit." God is that Spirit and so we know that if you're born of Him, it's Him in you. That is pure winning spiritual DNA.
