Topic: Running The Race

Text: "Do you not know that those who run in a race all
run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such
a way that you may win"  (1 Corinthians 9:24
NASB).

No one gets results at anything with half-hearted
effort. You can’t get a good job without effort.
You can’t cook a meal, enjoy a nice home, or
raise kids without effort. One of the cardinal
rules of life is that if you work at something, you
will experience results. In First Corinthians
9:24-25, Paul says that it takes discipline and
determination to get results in your Christian
walk. Like a runner, you have to do it like you
want to win. Some good Christians rarely get
results because they are indifferent with the
things of the spirit. Some have become
unenthusiastic about the anointing, so they don’t
pray. If you want to see more results, you have
to run like you want it. If you need divine
healing, run for it. If it’s deliverance, run for it.
The prize to run for is not just getting to Heaven
one day. Run for the things you want to see
come to pass in your life right now! In fact, as a
prophetic act of faith that you are going to run
harder than ever before for the things you want
to see take place, jump up and run right now if
you can! It’s time to get up and run!

PRAYER
Lord, I make a determination today to run for the
things I want to see come to pass. I make a fresh
commitment to Your Word and the things of the
Spirit and I make a run for it right now! In Jesus’
Name, amen.
