Never Stop Running

Of late it has seemed like many I know, including myself, have to run hard just to get behind. At times, that just becomes our reality. We have to run as hard as we can to not get too much further behind. In the face of such times it can be tempting to just slow down, relax, and maybe even stop to rest for a while. After all, we are not catching up, right?

Actually, that is not only not right, it is like running in the wrong direction. We will finish and win, if we just keep running.

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.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

Paul knew that he would win if he just ran to the end. We can as well. Let’s RUN!

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Bless the name Yahuah! Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal our hearts and minds. Let them be places filled with Your Law and Your ways. Deliver us from the thief that has stolen from us. Restore one hundred times one hundredfold to Your people. We ask these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
