Today's bible teaching: Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules

*STRIVE ON*

*2 Timothy 2:5 - Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules.*

Serious athletes are always in training. Constant discipline is required for any athlete to compete effectively. A person who does not train cannot expect to qualify or win a crown. Every athlete exercises self control in all things.

We are soldiers of the cross.  Each day we compete against flesh. We cannot be victorious in Christ unless we compete according to His rules: 
- We must be born again.
- We must show fidelity to God's word and will.
- Integrity and endurance should be our watchword.
- We must live according to the divine standard.

Always bear in mind that God's rules and standard can not be diluted or  compromised; it can only be obeyed or disobeyed. As followers of Christ, we dare not practice lawlessness. We must adhere to the law of the Spirit. We must turn from pursuing our own desires and seek to do what the Spirit of God wills for us.

We are in a race and we must not lose focus at any given time. Play on and compete well. Subdue and conquer the flesh desires. Work daily as a winner you are. The fact that you have not quit, that you continued striving to push yourself to win will result in praise and honour to the Lord and He Himself shall reward you.


*"I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion" -  Muhammad Ali*

Beloved, the game is still on. Strive on. Don't fail or be disappointed on the way. Never give up until the final whistle. It is well, even inside the well, it is still well with your soul Amen

*Shalom!*
