Never give up on God’s plan: Press on
Philippians 3:12-14 | I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.
What ‘race’ is Philippians 3 referring to? What is part of your race, or what has God called you to?
What roadblocks do followers of God encounter as they run their race? What advice does Philippians 3 give to them?
What does “pressing on” look like when roadblocks arise?
Why is “pressing on” and not giving up on God’s plan worth it? How do you know?
