Focus on the Race

October 15, 2023

Focus on the Race

Sermon by Pastor Brent Snook / October 15, 2023

Series: FINISH!

Bible text: Hebrews 12:1-2

Review:

Focus on time
Focus on our growth and His glory

Read Hebrews 12:1-2

I. THE CROWD BEHIND US

The writer of Hebrews tells of people who have run the race that really matters

Moses, Jacob, Sarah, Rahab, Joseph

They are the crowd that ran behind us – and finished.

II. THE CHALLENGE WITHIN US

Read Hebrews 12:1

A. Distraction

“Lay aside the weight”

Distractions come in all shapes and sizes

“Looking unto Jesus”

B. Destruction

“The sin that does so easily beset us”

Sin fascinates – then assassinates. Sin thrills – then kills.

Read Romans 13:13-14

III. THE COURSE BEFORE US

Read Psalm 15

A. Pillars

Self-honesty
Uprightness and honor
FInancial carefulness
Short accounts
Temperance
Transparency

B. Perspective

Disillusionment or disenchantment can derail us from the Christian race

Read Psalm 72:2-3

The example of Asaph

“Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never – in nothing, great or small, large or petty – never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” – Winston Churchill

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” – The apostle Paul (1 Cor 9:26-27)

ARE YOU ON TARGET TO FINISH THE RACE?

Imagine the tears in heaven over lost rewards – because people lost focus of the race.
