You Are a Runner in a Race
The Bible compares your walk of faith to a race that also has the character of a battle. In today's sermon Sigrid makes clear that this is about your spiritual endurance, the overcoming of crises, unshakeable trust in God and a resolute holding fast to His orders and principles. On this the New Testament speaks of activity, commitment and devotion. It calls you into your calling – into following Jesus and into the plans and purposes God has for you, for you are chosen and called out.
So do not let your spirit lie idle in a hammock! Let yourself be equipped now, rekindled and raised up in spiritual authority in Christ. So that you receive strength that becomes your drive in your situation, to move towards the goal boldly, resolutely and without fear.
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16
God Has More for You
