GOD-TRACKING IS RUNNING TENACIOUSLY
I’m told that the Greeks had a race in the early Olympic games that was unique to all the others. The winner of the race was not the runner who finished first. The winner was the runner who finished his race with his torch still lit. Paul the apostle, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit said, “Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we, an imperishable.”
One of my favourite English words is the word tenacity. Tenacity is defined as the quality or fact of being very determined; determination to grip something firmly. I could imagine those runners in the early Greek Olympics running as fast as they could, while gripping their Olympic torches firmly, with determination to win in such a way as to keep their flames burning.
God-tracking implies tracking the plans of God for our lives. This process requires us to remain on track with God’s purposes. If one of these athletes, running a track race, veered off track while he was running, he might stumble and fall in the rough, extinguish his torch. Christian, you and I are called to be the light of the world. Jesus said, “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” To keep that torch burning is to stay on track with God’s plans by acknowledge him in all your ways while seeking first his kingdom principles. Then to run the race set out before you with tenacity. Never, never give up and you will receive that imperishable prize!
God-tracking is running tenaciously
READ ALL ABOUT IT
1 Corinthians 9:24-27Matthew 5:14-16Proverbs 3:6Matthew 6:33
DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY
Help me to run with endurance and my flame burning this race that is set before me
“O Lord, forgive me for going off track and stumbling in the dirt of the world. I admit, my light has dimmed. I repent of all sin and grief that I have caused your Holy Spirit. I choose to pick myself up again and get back on the track to run with perseverance and tenacity, this race you have set out for me. I acknowledge you again in ever aspect of my life – from my supper private life to my most public life – and choose to line myself up again with your kingdom and your righteousness. Help me to run with endurance and my flame burning this race that is set before me. Amen.”
If you prayed that prayer I would really love to hear from you. Please email me, dudley@godtracker.co.uk

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
