Video of the Day: Final Round Highlights from 1986 Golf Tournament “The Masters”
Bible Verse of the Day:
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do, Ephesians 2:10.
Biblical Connection:
Yesterday was the first round of the 2025 Masters Golf Tournament, the first major on the PGA Tour. As a former mini-tour and Qualifying School participant, golf is unlike any other sport, requiring complete concentration over the course of 4 days. Over the final 10 holes of the 1986 Masters, Jack Nicklaus turned back the clock to win his 6th green jacket at the age of 46. This is what can happen when you believe in your God given talents.
The apostle Paul makes a powerful statement in today’s featured verse. Whenever a Christian enters into a personal relationship with Jesus, God has a specific plan for your life. As believers learn to keep in step with the Holy Spirit, Galatians 5:25, and discern God’s will for their lives, these good works Paul speaks of come into focus. Yet, to attain all that the Lord has prepared in advance, you must believe like Jack Nicklaus did on that miraculous back nine in 1986.
Closing Song:
Confidence is a visible sign of an internal belief. Although golfers tend to be stoic, confidence on a golf course can’t be faked. Wherever the Lord leads you this spring, trust in the Lord to lead you closer toward good works in Christ.
