Power Boost 2: 100% God (Sacrifice)
READY
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 NLT
SET
Early in our two days of harsh training with the Navy SEALS, we learned about the BUDs training. It was mentally and physically difficult. That’s when we came face-to-face with a small piece of what it would take to be a SEAL—the “40% Rule.”
The 40% Rule is simple. When your mind tells you that you’re tired and can’t go any farther—you are only 40% done. When you want to give up, you are only at 40% of what you can actually do. At that point in our training, we had finished 200 push-ups in the sand. That means we should have been able to do at least another 300. No one was up for that.
Every athlete knows what it means to push beyond his or her limits. We also know what it is like when we do not give our all or stop short.
That is what makes the sacrifice of Jesus so amazing. God, the Father, sent Jesus from heaven to earth for us. And Jesus was 100% all-in. He gave everything. Jesus chose death so we might live, forever. Jesus died on the cross for us. Why did Jesus do this? He knew we were separated from God, and there was nothing we could do to repair our broken relationship. We could not be good enough or do enough to earn God’s favor. Jesus loved us so much that He paid the price so we could be with God!
GO
1. Think about the 40% Rule. Have you ever been ready to quit but knew you still had more to give?
2. Knowing that Jesus gave 100% so you can live forever with God, how will you respond? Will you place your trust in Him? How will you live differently?
