Listen "#1,245: Don't Stop Running Your Race"
Episode Synopsis
The Bible uses the metaphor of a marathon to illustrate the perseverance of the Christian life. It’s a picture we can understand. Today, you and I are still in our race. We are on a journey of serving Jesus. We have not finished it yet. We must keep going until we reach the end.Main Points:1. Let me encourage you today. Don’t let anything stop you from running this race. Don’t let anything trip you up or hinder you from reaching the finish line. 2. You and I can persevere to the end. We can finish the race God has given us. We can be faithful and live for Jesus until the end of our lives. We know this is possible because God has given us everything we need for a godly life.3. Sometimes the race gets so hard that you aren’t sure if you can make it. Yet, we are encouraged by this truth that if others have persevered to the end, so can we. Today’s Scripture Verses: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.”2 Peter 1:3 - “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.”James 1:12 - “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
