The word for this weekend is - Race !

Good morning,

The word for this weekend is - Race !

 

When you see people running a race what do you believe? I believe that everyone  is running to win. But we know that only one will win, but there is something that needs to be done first every athlete should and must exercise daily and eat very healthy foods right ?That is why they have trainers,someone who cheers them on and encourages them to never give up. Now think about that for a second okay?So,now let us think about the spiritual man or woman, we are in a race also. The bible is very clear it says, all the runners run ,but only one will get the prize, read 1 Corinthians 9:24, Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. So, when we are running we should be running like a winner, why? Because we are renewed, we gain new strength from God, read Isaiah 40:31, But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. You have to understand that the believers get their strength from God. He increases our strength daily, He is the the Creator of Heaven and earth, nothing that is , is without Him. So let the word of God speak to you, the word says learn from me, read Matthew 11:29, Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. So let us embrace the spiritual food, the word of God, that we all need. Are you in training to keep yourself connected to God ? Paul says that athletes go into strict training, they give up somethings and do somethings differently while they are in training? We need to study or read the word of God daily. What is the differences? One is for a season and the other is for eternally. Run your race with joy. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
