The prize Philippains 3:7-14 (p.900) The prize of life is Jesus. What is the prize of your life? Don’t waste your life – everything has to come back to the prize, the ultimate goal.

Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. 1 Corinthians 9:24-26a

… let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus… Hebrews 12:1-2

Press on 1.Throw off anything that slows you down. 2.With God’s help, get rid of sin in your life. 3.Be willing to suffer with Jesus. 4.Let go of the past. –Learn from the past. –The past does not define you – you are NEW in Christ.
