The DNA of a Giant

Peter Parker, The famous little guy with glasses, lacking muscles in his body, shy, probably with low self steam, and not many friends. The same guy that later on experiences a spider bite and his DNA gets mixed up with the spider’s DNA and BOOM! He doesn’t need his glasses anymore, gets all muscular, his self steam gets a boost, everyone likes him. He stops being just another person on earth and he becomes a superhero. He is the famous Spider-man.

God’s DNA, the giant, also has “super powers”. And just as Peter Parker, we too need His DNA. We need to connect our lives with the DNA of the GIANT and become a “new species”.

3 ways we connect with His DNA.

I.                    I. Origin connection. John 1:12 When you are a son, you don’t only have characteristics of the Giant, now you also have rights, promises and heritage. We get to not only know but understand that we obtain hope, salvation, help, strength, love, acceptance, purpose, protection and much more! The giant stops being just a superhero, now that hero is your dad! Have you noticed how animals get when their little ones are in danger? Imagine how much more protected we are with God.

II.                  II.  Freedom connection. Matthew 11:28-30 He asks for the poor, lost, those that hit rock bottom, that do incorrect things, that are humiliated by their mistakes and bad choices, that are going through problems, stress, insecurities, those that think they are better than others, judgmental, impatient, selfish, that are guided by their emotions, those that want to do things on their own strength; to come to Him and He will give them rest. How will he do that? By given us his yoke = work and restriction. His yoke is still easier than the yoke and consequences of doing the wrong things. His restrictions are reasonable and simple. It is easier to live in obedience and at peace than killing and going to jail or lying and not being at peace because you are concerned if you’ll get caught. He tells us about him being humble not only as a characteristic but for us to know that we can trust him, he is looking out for our best interest. “I can do anything I want but not everything is good for me”.

III.               III.  Unity connection. Acts 2:44-47 Taking care and being taken care of by other Giants. In honest and generous relationships. United with the same purpose. When there is genuine love within His children, family, church; it doesn’t only motivate and stimulates the ones that are part of it, but it also brings growth and belonging to those that will join in the future.

When we understand our new DNA with our origin (who we are), Freedom (where we are going), and unity (who we are going with). We become giants that God has placed on this world, which needs to know the real giant. Our lives will guide other lives to Christ, the only way to the Father, to complete and happy lives.
