📖 Today's Word:
Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.
Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.
To win the race, the runner must stay focused on the goal, put forth his very best effort, and stay committed to the task. In the Christian life, winning requires the same disciplines. You must lay aside the sinful habits and attitudes that hold you back and fix your eyes on Jesus. Only by focusing on and following His example of love, surrender and obedience can you win the race. Yes, the Christian race requires great commitment and focus, but has one great reward that the runners of a race do not have. In the Christian race, every runner can win. Paul wrote in I Corinthians 9:24, ". . . They all run to obtain the prize." What an encouraging thought! If you fix your eyes on Jesus as you run the race of life, you are a guaranteed winner. No other race on earth can boast such greatness.
🙏 Today's Prayer:
Father, may the assurance of hearing Your voice say, "Well done!" at the end of my race motivate me to run with patience and endurance the race that is set before me. Amen
