And how much more at the beginning of this new month!
To run the race and reach the ribbon we must keep our eyes
on the prize that is there to be won. The world and all of its 'politics', lies, deceptions and
distractions, seek constantly to divert us from the goal and steal our focus
from the high and noble calling upon our lives.
There is no looking backward when you are running a race.
The finish line is all that matters. The failures and deviations of the past
must not be allowed to frustrate our forward progress. The lies of the devil
and all his human cronies must not cause our eyes to come off the track that God has put us on.
Let our enemies do their worst. God will take care of them and
bring their plans to confusion, insanity, dementia, and obscurity.
Like Paul says, ‘It is not as though I have already ‘made it’, or reached the level or goals I should have achieved by now, but
this one thing I am I will do, forgetting what's gone before, I set my eyes on the goal ahead, and with all of my
determination and strength, run to fulfil the job that God called me
to.
And no devil, no argument, no accusation, no spiteful or
cynical spirit, is going to stop me; for I am more than a conqueror through
Jesus Christ who loved me from before the very beginning of this world.’
Never give in! Never surrender!
We are more than this world might ever imagine we actually
are.
