Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets
the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. - 1 Corinthians 9:24
One thought shared in the post “Enthusiastically Going After Our Treasured
Reward” was that Paul was adaptable for others so he had the opportunity to
inspire others towards accepting the Gospel message. He wanted people to feel
empowered and ready to be deployed to change the world.
Paul followed the Word and was
disciplined like a runner in a race enthusiastically going for first place. The
difference for Paul is that the reward that He was after is a crown that last
forever.
Like in the song Live with Abandon by Newsboys, desire
that your life matters, accept the power God gives through the Holy Spirit, and
give God all you have so His purpose can be fulfilled through you.
