Wild Excitement…

Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.” [WEB]

Do you remember the foot races at school? It was always easier to finish when our team was cheering us on. Whenever we feel supported we naturally feel better and achieve more.

Our verse today reminds us that we have awe-inspiring support in a great cloud of witnesses. They are there just for us and as they cheer… we win! Today they are roaring, “NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD – KEEP GOING!”

As you can see our victory comes from what we do with this support. God wants us to discard every weight and every clinging sin holding us back… they are too heavy for us anyway.  By dropping them we obtain the freedom to run our race.

Why wait another day?  Lets discard any discouragement; past failure or weighty sin that slows us down… leave them beside the track. As we do this the cloud of witnesses will go wild with excitement. We will MOVE FASTER AND SEE CLEARER than ever before. Our heavenly supporters will wildly cheer us on to the finishing line!

Who’s Looking At You…

Psalms 101:6 “Mine eyes are on the faithful of the land, to dwell with me, whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth me.”[YLT]

I don’t know about you but when we go shopping our eyes are constantly looking for a good deal on what we’ve set out to buy. We do this so we don’t miss what we’re looking for. In the same way God’s eyes are looking for the faithful of the land.

Now the word “faithful” in this Psalm means “BUILDER UPPER or SUPPORTER.” So, God’s eyes are upon those who build up and support others. I want you to know that God is looking at us right now. We have caught the eyes of God. This happens because he wants to dwell with us. That is what building up and supporting others does – it makes God want to dwell with us.

The word “perfect” means “INTEGRITY and TRUTH.” When we walk in integrity and truth we get to serve God from our hearts, not just as an outward action. This is one of the simplest keys to serving God and keeping His eyes on us!

This week faithfully BUILD UP and SUPPORT others, walk in INTEGRITY and TRUTH knowing that God’s eyes are upon us. We will dwell with him and serve Him like we never thought possible.

No Risk Offer…

1 Corinthians 3:11 “For no one can lay any FOUNDATION other than the one already laid, which is JESUS Christ.” [NIV]

Every building has FOUNDATIONS designed to carry specific loads. There is only one sure FOUNDATION that can carry the load of you and your family… Jesus is this FOUNDATION. He can support everything… you, your calling and your destiny.

He will take the maximum load that you can put on Him at any time. No matter what burden, no matter what sorrow, no matter what fear… He can carry it for you.

The truth is there is only one FOUNDATION suitable for us to build upon. It is a FOUNDATION that will not crack and will never crumble. This FOUNDATION is JESUS Christ. JESUS is a FOUNDATION that we don’t have to wait to be laid; it is completely ready to build upon right now. Don’t ever build on other FOUNDATIONS like people, jobs or financial security because they will not hold us securely and faithfully… only Jesus can do this for us.

No risk now, no risk later… JESUS is more than able to carry the load and burdens of your life. Take any weights from your life and lay them upon the FOUNDATION that is JESUS Christ. He will carry them for you – it’s what JESUS does!!!
