The Secret to Finishing Your Race—Be Strong and Courageous!
February 23, 2025 • Ravi Kandal • Hebrews 12:1–2, Joshua 1:9
We all have a race to run. A calling, a destiny, a purpose that God has set before us. But here’s the truth—many start, few finish. Why? Because fear, discouragement, and distractions slow us down. But Joshua 1:9 reminds us: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
In this message, we’re breaking down the secret to finishing your race—not just starting, not just surviving, but running with endurance and crossing the finish line strong. We’ll unpack:
✔️ Why fear delays your calling—and how to break free.
✔️ The difference between endurance and tolerance.
✔️ How to run with God-given strength, not human effort.
✔️ Why your suffering is not wasted—it’s momentum for your future.
✔️ How to resist distractions and stay focused on the race set before you.
God has already given you everything you need to run this race. He’s not asking you to do it alone. He’s not calling you to struggle—He’s calling you to run with endurance, stand firm, and finish well.
If this message blesses you, drop an "Amen!" in the comments and share it with someone who needs encouragement today. Let’s run this race together!
