Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and the perfecter of our faith. For the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12: 1-2 NIV
Hebrews 12:1-2 describes the importance of keeping our eyes FIXED on our reward Jesus Christ (we have already attain, HALLELUJAH), every moment in our lives. Not as easy as it sounds.... tell me about it. BUT we can! What are the obstacles/distractions blocking us? What sins and temptations getting in our way? Satan intentionally and strategically ATTEMPTS to throw us off by putting our faith in OURSELVES, family, children, marriage, job, 401(k), investments, retirement plans, education, etc. BUT NOT GOD! WHY? To keep us from what GOD has for us!
Be on the look out! What is entangling you?
Be Blessed in the name of Jesus.
