Let Us Strip Off Every Weight That Slows Us Down,
Especially
The Sin That So Easily Trips Us Up. 

The life of faith is an endurance race, not a wind sprint. It is a marathon! So what is slowing us down? Lets strip off every thing that is holding us back, especially sin that so easily trips us up! Lets not keep doing the same thing, the same stupid sin over and over again and expect God to bless our lives. Lets run with endurance the race God has set before us!

Scripture

Hebrews 12

1. Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.

Observation

The life of faith is an endurance race, not a wind sprint. It is a marathon!

So what is slowing us down?

Lets strip off every thing that is holding us back, especially sin that so easily trips us up!

Lets not keep doing the same thing, the same stupid sin over and over again and expect God to bless our lives.

Lets run with endurance the race God has set before us!

 Application

I am running the race and I want to finish well! How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I want to be able to say like the Apostle Paul in  2 Timothy 4:6-7, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day--and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.”
