Run to Win

How is the run of your life today? We are continually tempted to draw back, let up, and give in…

Maybe it seems easier to revert back to the old way of doing things – to figure out life on our own. Perhaps it seems as though God just hasn’t come through and life is only getting harder, not easier.

So how should we live in the face of doubts or the temptation to do life our way? How can you and I run faithfully for Christ?

 

The Christ-followers who received the epistle to the Hebrews in the first century A.D. were facing a very similar situation. The pressure to turn back from their profession of faith in Christ was very strong, and the social and economic rewards for caving in or giving up would have been tremendous. Life wasn’t easy being a follower of “the Way.” However, the book of Hebrews specifically addresses just what they – and we – are to do when faced with this kind of pressure, this kind of “wall” in the run of the Christian life. So let’s take a look at Hebrews 10:35 and the following context together.

Through these 3 short video devotionals we’ll discover how this passage will help answer our question of what we should do when we are faced with the temptation to fall back and or give into myriad temptations. Most importantly, we’ll learn how we can keep running faithfully for Christ in the run of our lives. Let’s jump into the study!
