Today's bible teaching: Press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus

*PRESS ON!*

*Philippians 3:14 - I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.*

For every prize, there is a bench mark - it is attainable via pressing on. It is not about how you start. It is about how you finish.

If we are going to press on, there are three things we need to do:
1. We need to look forward.
2. We need to be single-minded.
3. We need to keep eternity in view.
If you are conversant with sports, you will understand that you must look forward toward the goal, not behind you to see who is coming. You must keep your eyes on the prize.

Some people get stuck in the past. "Past glory syndrome" is one of the inhibitors that attack our spiritual growth. You conquered and won the battle yesterday is not a yardstick that you will still win today. What happened yesterday doesn't have to determine what happens tomorrow. Rise up to the real occasion of the day.

In this race of life, no eyeservice. Our eternal reward is the prize of high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We don't run this race to please the crowd or anyone, but to obtain the crown that Christ Himself will present to those who are faithful.

Life can be hard. Christianity can be a struggle. But the strength to go on comes from God. Giving up now is not the antidote to your present situation.

Beloved, we must see this through to the end. Whatever is the cost we must press on. No matter how hard it gets do not let go. Our lives belong to Him. Our prize is assured. Amen!

*Shalom!*
