Israel
waited for forty years
To
enter the land because
Ten
guys who had started strong
Ten
guys had seen God
Send
the plagues to Egypt
Ten
guys who had seen God
Open
the Red sea for them and their families
And
then close it on Pharaoh’s army
Then
guys who had seen God
Work
time and time again on their behalf
Freaked
out because the land
Contained
some very powerful tribes and fortified cities
In
other words, the ten had a greater
Fear
of man than they did of God
Only
two finished strong
And
this was after all mind
Boggling
miracles God had performed
Before
their eyes
Fear
is the sand of machinery of life
A
whole generation perished in the bleak of sand
The
problem is, no one
But
God can look into man’s heart
You
can bet that each of these ten guys
If
they were around today, would be
At the
church faithful every Sunday morning and night
You
see, it’s endurance
That
spate the men from the boys
It’s
endurance that determines
Whether
or not a man will finish strong
And
endurance is the fruit of godly character
The
Christian life isn’t a hundred yard dash
It’s a
marathon
It’s a
long race and long races don’t required speed
They
require
Grit,
determination and finishing power...Hebrew 12:1-2
You
may be reading this and thinking
That
it’s too late for you to finish strong
You’ve
made some mistake some big mistakes
You
may think you could never finish strong
Will
you be that two that will finish strong out of the crowd?
