Are you hangin’ with the wrong people?  Do you enter into promises or treaties or agreements with those who do not know God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ?
What gods are influencing your decisions?  God says don’t worship them or enter into agreement with them.

Why? Why should we follow through with what God tells us to do?  Because those without God will make you sin against your God and you will be ensnared.  Exodus 23:32-33

What should we do?  We are warned not to be ensnared or get tangled up with unbelief.  The endurance of belief in the living God is a long distance race… it is not a sprint.

There are followers of Christ who are being tested… this moment… where they live.  Perhaps you are one who is undergoing persecution because of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Stay the course.

Run your race.

Put on your long distance track shoes…

and run with endurance.

(NASB) Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.”
