Scripture

Revelation 14

12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the saints who obey God's commandments and remain faithful to Jesus.

Observation

I don’t know if you are a Christ-Follower or not, but if you are maybe you have noticed that some that started out strong are now floundering in their faith. I know so many that were very active in church, but now don’t even act like church was ever part of their lives. What happened? I sure that there are many different reasons: maybe they never had a personal relationship with Christ in the first place; maybe they have allowed sin to take over the throne of his or her life; or maybe they have allowed the cares of this world to squeeze out their joy for the Savior. It is sad.

The Christian life is not like a sprint; it is a marathon. It calls for patient endurance to remain faithful to Jesus. How have you been running the race?

Application

I will pray and ask God for the patience and the endurance to finish this Christian race well.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I know that you have already won the battle with the Devil and yet I know that today he is still very powerful, “but greater is he that is in me than he that is of this world.” Give me the patience and endurance I need to finish this race well. Help me to be a good finisher. Amen.
