1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (The Message)
24-25 You've all been to the stadium and seen the athletes race. Everyone runs; one wins. Run to win. All good athletes train hard. They do it for a gold medal that tarnishes and fades. You're after one that's gold eternally.

The race of life that is set before you has an end. Many know that the end is leaving this world and spending eternity with the Father.

However, while we are here, this race on earth is to be run continually keeping our eye on the prize. Yes, the prize, the end result is VICTORY. Train and learn and get in sharp. That entails reading the Word of God, prayer, fasting, mediating, being planted in a Word church and continually developing your relationship with GOD!

We were born to win! So run this race with patience and endurance. Keep yourself in shape, continually doing what it takes to always stay ahead. Stay focused on the task and work for the kingdom. Stop letting yourself and the enemy take you out of your lane!

The earthly things will pass away, tarnish and fade; HOWEVER WE are after that which will last forever, eternally, never ending!

So RUN TO WIN!
