He Has Qualified Us

That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Colossians 1:10

God our Father Has qualified us to be partakers of His inheritance, and because of this, He wants us to walk worthy of our calling, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. He also wants us to be strengthened with all might according to His power.
Finally, He wants us to walk in patience and joyfulness.
Since we have been qualified by the Most High, we have to live according to His expectation so that He can give us more grace. With this grace, we can bear fruit for Him and live in joy. You have been qualified by God, so you don't need man to qualify you before you live a life worthy of your calling. Live a life of responsibility because you have been qualified. Hallelujah!

The Race Before Us

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Hebrews 12:1

There is a race set before every child of God and he or she is expected to win this race. The race may not be the same for everybody, but the expectation of winning is the same for everybody. What must we do then? The opening scripture gives us a clue to the answer: We should lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily besets us, and run with patience. The weight in your life may be laziness, po*******hy, overeating, ignorance, failing to study the Bible frequently, etc. The sin that easily besets you might be telling lies, stealing, gossiping, fornication, adultery, drunkenness, etc. It is our duty to identify that sin in our lives; they may not be the same for everyone since we all have different temperaments and weaknesses.
Once you have identified these, ask for grace and run with patience, and you will definitely win. Praise the Lord! Dear beloved, have you identified the sin that easily besets you?
What must you do to win over this?
