How to be a Strong Finisher!
Jesus was a Strong FINISHER!
He was sent.
He worked His Father’s will.
Jesus FINISHED well!
Paul was a strong FINISHER!
The Heroes of Faith were strong FINISHERS!
These are called the great cloud of witnesses.
These all began in faith, ran in faith, and finished in faith!
They bear the testimony of a strong FINISHER!
We too can be strong FINISHERS!
How to be strong FINISHERS
Be FOCUSED!
Questions:
Have I entered this race through faith in Jesus Christ and His work on the Cross?
What goal has God set before me?
What hindrances have I laid aside to accomplish this goal?
Be a FORGIVER!
Tests, obstacles, and offences will come.
Will you all let offenses become tombstones or stepping stones?
Will you remain bound in a prison cell of bitterness, or will you forgive and walk out free?
It has been said that unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die!
Monkey’s trapped in Africa.
Hollow led balls placed in the area where monkeys live.
Nuts are put in the lead ball.
The monkey puts its hand through the small hole and grabs the nut.
The fist is too big to pull out.
They are held captive because they will not let go of the nut.
Many cannot finish strong because they will not let go of an offense.
Don’t REHEARSE it!
Don’t CURSE it!
Don’t NURSE it!
REVERSE it!
Jesus forgave those who crucified Him.
Be a FORGETTER!
Many do not let go of the past.
Past failures.
You can’t change your past.
You can learn from your past.
You can put your past failures under the blood and use your failures to teach sinners.
(Psalm 51:13)
Past successes.
Many keep talking about “The Good Ole Days”.
Resting on past successes can lead to present failures and missed opportunities.
You are not old until you begin living in the past.
James Walker: “When your memories exceed your dreams, you are finished.”
Forget those things that are behind—both good and bad—so that you might focus on the finish line ahead.
Be a FIGHTER!
Paul PRESSED on!
You must fight to finish!
Prime Minister Winston Churchill, during World War II, on October 29, 1941, gave a speech at Harrow School in England in which he said, "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 honour and good sense.
Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
Be a FINISHER!
There is a finish line!
Have you started your race?
Your race begins when you give your life to Jesus!
It doesn’t matter how well you begin your race if you do not finish your race.
If you are going to finish the race, run so as to win!
Will you be counted among the company of STRONG FINISHERS?
