RUN THE HEAVENLY RACE

TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 9:24-27

MEMORY VERSE: “Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain” (1 CORINTHIANS 9:24).

The 1968 Olympics recorded a dogged Olympian, John Stephen Akhwari from Tanzania. He got injured in a fall early in the race. However, an hour after the marathon’s winner crossed the finish line, he also came limping across the finish line. When asked why he didn’t quit, he said, “My country did not send me 7,000 miles to start this race. My country sent me to finish.”

God called us to start and finish the Heavenly race. The race may sometimes be full of pain, dangers and obstacles, but we are to persevere because God wants us to run it and finish strong.

Christianity is a race; so, run to win the prize (eternal rest, incorruptible crown, citizenship and mansions in heaven). There is no other way to get to heaven but by running the race.

The heavenly race requires obeying God’s commandments, self-discipline, endurance, prayerfulness, and saying “Yes” to Christ, and “No” to the flesh. Avoid disqualification by staying away from sin. Starting a race is wonderful, but finishing strong is greater. By the grace of God, you will win.

QUOTE: Run to win the prize.

CHALLENGE: Paul said, “I have finished my course…” What would you say?

PRAYER: Loving Father, help me run this heavenly race till the end
