1 Corinthians 9:16-27
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
The above scripture is apostle paul's divine words, telling us about, how was able to convert many to Christ, He was everything just to win a soul for the kingdom, but today's approach to the gospel is rather pathetic situation; where a preacher never visited a small Church for encouragement, they all needs their reward here on earth, we are in a race as christian, we are to put our body under hard training so that we can be able to obtain the crown on the last day
Any games that dozes morning, evening and night has officially decided or known his future. Also, anybody sitting for examination and never discovered time to peruse and consider for the exam, has similarly learn his place among disappointments, in light of the fact that the blessed soul will just uncover to you, what you have perused.
You need to figure out how to be progressing, with the goal that when the entryway of chance opens, you are there.
Teach yourself with a specific end goal to make that tallness of progress you are looking out for God for.
1Timothy 4:8
For physical preparing is of some esteem, yet righteousness has an incentive for all things, holding guarantee for both the present life and the life to come.
Extremely man that have achieved anything huge for God, needs to in this way, with abnormal state of train, particularly on themselves.
Indeed, even common honors, are works of controls and consistency, it is extremely unlikely train will be ruined in any minor or major accomplishmentsCan you take that choice to be a disciplinary Christian, who realized that he's in a race for a morally sound crown (1Corinthian 9:25).
JESUS LOVE YOU, AND HE NEEDS YOU TO BE DISCIPLINED AND CONSISTENCE IN FOLLOWING HIM.
Crown anticipates us at the most recent day, when we will get as indicated by our level of teach towards those things that are set before us,.
