1 John 1:7 ‘But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.’
DAILY READING John 19:16-42; 2 Chronicles 30; Psalm 86
In the world of horse racing, many champion horses are highly sought after, for the reproduction of off-springs that carry their superior DNA.
‘Sea the Stars’ is a champion racehorse, regarded as one of the greatest racehorses of all times. This Irish thoroughbred is considered one of the best horses to have raced in Europe in the past 40 years. It began racing when only two years old and by the time it was three years old, it had won many of the major European Championship horse races. His winning record is described as the best of modern thoroughbred racing.
Sea the stars’ winning streak was not surprising because it was born by a renowned champion racehorse named ‘Urban Sea.’
Sea the stars‘ performance on the race course was so good that soon many horse owners wanted to have off-springs reproduced by him. Seeing the financial potential, in 2009, its owners retired it early at the very peak of its career. Though ‘Sea the stars’ had won millions of pounds in prizes from horse racing, however as a stallion it stood to earn far more through siring champion off-springs. Currently each time a mare is brought to ‘Sea the stars’ to mate, a fee of £135,000 is paid to its owners. And in a year alone it can be paired with close to 200 mares. This way, the owners of ‘Sea the Star’ are making far more money than what the horse could have earned from horse racing. And expectedly many of its off springs have already become top winners in the highest class of horse racing. In 2017 its off-springs dominated Europe’s championship horse races, winning most of the top prizes.
Indeed DNA is powerful. In humans each person’s DNA contains a record of their ancestry. Recorded in the DNA are vital information of the traits and tendencies of a family’s history. As children of God we carry the superior divine DNA of Christ in us.
Jesus paid the ultimate price by shedding His blood at Calvary to bring us into the family of God. Through new birth we have entered into a new spiritual bloodline and have received a new divine nature of strength and power.
1 John 1:7 says ‘But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.’
The Blood of Jesus works in us to cleanse from sin and bring us into alignment with God’s character and nature. Being born into the family of God means we now carry His DNA. Therefore winning is in our blood, success is in our blood, we are expected to excel in life.
So it doesn’t matter at what level you may be right now, you are destined to be great. Your value is not based on what you do, what your income is, or who you know. Your value comes from who your father is. You are a child of the Almighty God who has called us to be priests and kings on the earth. Therefore anytime you may feel inadequate always remember whose child you are, and straighten your crown.
Start carrying yourself with confidence because you are part of a royal family. By the power of God at work in you, there is nothing you cannot do. There’s no height too much for you to attain. Truly when you are born of God, you are born to win.
PRAYER:
Father, I thank You for making me to be a partaker of Your divine bloodline. Indeed through Christ I am an overcomer, surely by the Blood, I am more than a conqueror in Jesus’ name.
