First Breaths!

2 Timothy 4:7 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”

First Breaths!

How do prophetic announcements entwine with life’s progress expected? How join such strands daily?

When all seems unraveling past Today’s present, how shall one continue to press on most bravely?

Ah yes! Find we then our sought answer in Scripture! “Till the clouds be rolled back!” Thus serve greatly!

Relentlessly even till Time bends its knee! So LORD, use me the fullest, I pray THEE!

As HIServant pressing hard to the finish without slowing down,

Devotional: Philippians 3:13-14 “Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do,

forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before:

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of GOD in CHRIST JESUS!”

While we recite Paul’s words of having fought the good fight and had finished the course…

…we have not. Not yet!

So we run this race by HIS grace with great faith till HE grants us FIRST BREATHS gained in Heaven!

HE is coming and HIS reward is with HIM! So do not shrink back now but press onward, Beloved…and upwards!

Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses,

…let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely,

…and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us…”

2 Timothy 4:8 “As such, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the LORD,

…the Righteous Judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved HIS appearing.“

Amen and amen!
