Text: Hebrews 12:1–2
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Endurance means staying faithful to God until the end. Jesus stayed on the cross because of the joy ahead of Him (Hebrews 12:2). A disciple must learn to stay strong through pressure, temptation, waiting, and hard times. This grace turns weakness into strength and struggles into testimonies.
Strength comes from focus. Disciples must keep their eyes on Jesus, not on problems. When we look to Him, we receive peace (Isaiah 26:3) and firm footing (Psalm 16:8). Clear focus brings courage and helps believers remain steady. Since Christ stayed faithful, His followers must do the same.
This quality shows genuine discipleship. The Bible says, “He who continues to the end shall be saved” (Matthew 24:13). The enemy tries to weaken believers through distraction, discouragement, and deceit. However, those grounded in God’s Word and prayer remain firm in every season (Colossians 1:11).
Faithfulness under pressure brings reward (James 1:12). God honors those who do not give up. This process builds strong believers—spiritually mature, dependable, and ready for God’s use. It develops inner strength and leaves an eternal impact.
Prayer Nugget: Father, give me strength to remain faithful in every trial and to finish my race strong in Jesus name.
