“I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 3:14
Not just for heavenly matters but also for worldly affairs is this press required, to achieve any meaningful feat.
For lack of this, yesterday’s champions have been relegated to the annals of history in past glory.
An absence of this continual press introduces a routine lifestyle without progressive challenges.
And what more? How can we ever attain this glorious prize of the high calling without being divinely competitive in Christ?
Being an ambassador for Christ is a fight to the finish.
The battles are endless and their forms ever evolving because the adversaries never go on vacation.
Stay determined and never give up.
Most importantly, in all undertakings, run with the help of the Holy Spirit and not by the arm of flesh.
Look ahead and maintain focus, forgetting the past as you press towards this eternal mark.
It promises to be worthwhile in the end.
Are you in Christ already? Then keep up this fight to the finish.
What about you still trapped in the worldly valley of decision with the multitudes, what are you waiting for?
Now is the time to commence your journey without fail.
Remain blessed.
