Hebrews 12:1
1Therefore, 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.
Throw off everything that hinders, things that hold us back... Fear, insecurities, pride, self ambitions and our past.
God gives us the power to this off anything if you want to....what hinders me?
What an amazing father we have that he forgives us regardless of what we do!
Sin is so easy to untangle us....when you get entangled it is not easy to untangle your self, sometimes the harder you fight the more tangled it gets!
We have to slam the door shut on sin...or we will get entangled.
Matthew 5:27
27"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery. 28But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Our thoughts are just as condemning as our actions.
Hebrews 12:1
We can't walk.....we need to run the race that god has given us.
Sometimes we have to do something radical to get out of the rut we are and and start running....Satan is running after us!
Hebrews 12:1-3
2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
How do we not give up and throw off every sin that entangles us? We fix our eyes on Jesus!
