Run and Overcome!

Apostle Colette Toach

Run and Overcome!

When an athlete prepares for a race, he makes sure that he has no weight to drag him down. He lightens his clothing and makes his body fit. Once all the weights are removed, all that remains is the raw power of his muscles that have been toned. In the same way, you have in your spirit all the power you need to overcome in your life my child.
However the greatest care you have is not the lack of anointing, but rather the presence of the weights that keep dragging you down. If only you would set aside the weights that are besetting you, this race would be so easy to run. For my burden is light and my yoke is easy! I always intended for you to run and never grow weary. I have given you the anointing and my strength to face and win any race set before you.
However the weights that you have held onto are dragging you down. You have asked me for wisdom. You have asked me for more strength and I have given you all of these things. However now is the time to lay aside the weights that are holding you back. Throw aside the relationships that are causing you to stumble. Put aside the flesh and the sin that is making you trip. Throw away the guilt and the fear that keep taking your eyes off the finish line!
As you do this, you will start to feel the load lighten. Then you will see that you had it in you all along to run this race. In fact, you are fitter than you realized! Throw aside the weights and then run with all that is in you my child and together we shall surely win! Amen.
