This is What the Lord Says: "Do not be afraid, I am with you."

What gave Martin Luther, a tender-hearted and emotional monk, the courage and strength to continue to stand up and say, "I cannot and I will not recant." He heard the gospel, the same gospel God speaks to you.

Since the glorious crown of Christ is our imperishable prize, we will train with purpose and travel by faith so that we will not lose his prize.

Do Everything You Can to Stand

As we face the struggles of this life, we cannot do nothing and wait it out. We need to identify the enemy, the real enemy, and put on the full armor of God at all times, because then we stand with Jesus in his victory.

Since the glorious crown of Christ is our imperishable prize, we will train with purpose and travel by faith so that we will not lose his prize.

Facing These Evil Days With Wisdom

We don't need to be stuck in post apocalyptic landscape or dystopian future to realize that we are facing evil days. So Paul helps Christians be prepared to face these evil days with wisdom.

Since the glorious crown of Christ is our imperishable prize, we will train with purpose and travel by faith so that we will not lose his prize.
