“RUN THE RACE OF FAITH WITH ENDURANCE & PERSEVERANCE”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“So then, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us, too, put aside every impediment — that is, the sin which easily hampers our forward movement — and keep running with endurance in the contest set before us, looking away to the Initiator and Completer of that trusting, Yeshua…” (Hebrews 12:1-3)

Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses who have borne testimony to the Truth, let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance, unnecessary weight and that sin which so readily deftly and cleverly clings to and entangles us, and let us run with patient endurance and steady and active persistence the appointed course of the race that is set before us.

Looking away from all that will distract to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith, giving the first incentive for our belief and is also its Finisher, bringing it to maturity and perfection.

He, for the joy of obtaining the prize that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Just think of Him Who endured from sinners such grievous opposition and bitter hostility against Himself, reckon up and consider it all in comparison with your trials, so that you may not grow weary or exhausted, losing heart and relaxing and fainting in your minds.

HOW TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS

Keep focused where you are going
(Hebrews 12:2-3 / Psalms 121:1-8)

Do not look at the difficulties or circumstances (Zechariah 4:7 / Isaiah 45:2-3)

Do not lose your focus like Samson:
(Judges 14:1-3) Remember he was called to be a Nazarite (Judges 13:4-5)

Do not look back but keep pressing on (Phillipians 3:14-17)

Invoke the blessing of God through prayer and meditation of the word of God (Joshua 1:8-9 / 2Chronicles 20:20)

Learn to trust on God and not on your strength (Psalms 125:1-2 / Isaiah 26:3-4 / Proverbs 3:5-6)

Watch your words
(Proverbs 16:2 / Malachi 13:3 / Psalms 17:3)

Remember, the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in behalf of those whose hearts are blameless toward Him.

SUCCESS IS YOURS IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME, AMEN!

Somebody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!”

Shalom and good morning.
