Endurance and resilience were the hallmarks of Jesus’ ministry. As Christians, our lives must likewise be defined, not by our achievements, but by how we overcome failure, keeping an attitude of never giving up and always desiring to bounce back from setbacks. Preaching out of Hebrews 12:1, Pastor Aries Zulkarnain teaches that while supernatural miracles are great, if we only look out for the spectacular, we may miss out on the “ordinary” revelation from an extraordinary God. Two truths: one, we are called to run a race of faith that is given by the Lord, not our own “fantasy run”. The race of faith builds endurance, not a way of escape. Two, we are to lay aside every weight that hinders our run: addictions, toxic behaviours, anything that is not pleasing to the Lord. As we run our own race set for us by God, we can finish it well by the power of the Holy Spirit.
