I Peter 3:15 (NIV) “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with great gentleness and respect.”
"Are you ready to testiiimoooneeey?” The ring announcer queries of the crowd of saints gathered to watch yet another epic battle between good and evil.
“In this corner” the ring announcer directing the crowd’s attention to the left of the ring, “weighing very heavy on the hearts of many is the champion of this world, The Deeviiiiillll.“ Satan is the prince of this world (John 12:31). He has been crowned champion by default, often because we are unprepared to give an answer. Satan has this uncanny ability to keep us distracted by the things of this world; money, jobs, relationships, gossip, television, and even sometimes religion; whatever it takes he will use to keep us separated from God.
“And in this corner the challenger full of “hope” Heeerrrreees (Enter your name).” As the challengers we have our work cut out for us. The rules of this daily match are simple, “give the reason for the hope you have” and “do this with great gentleness and respect.” It may sound simple, but most of us struggle to “set apart Christ as Lord.” Satan is keeping us distracted.
“Ding, Ding, Ding” the bell to start the battle rings out. The referee poses the question, “(Enter you name) what is the reason for your hope.”
The crowd and the champion wait; expecting not to hear a response. Suddenly the loud, proud, confident response of a prepared believer is spoken, “Jesus!” Are you prepared?
