Motivação
Motivação verdadeira vem de Deus. A Bíblia nos inspira a correr a carreira da fé com perseverança, sabendo que o Senhor fortalece, guia e recompensa os fiéis.
Força do alto
Tudo posso naquele que me fortalece. Deus dá poder aos fracos e renova a força dos cansados — Ele é a fonte de toda motivação.
29 He giveth to the faint strength; and to the powerless he imparteth much might.30 Though youths should grow faint and be weary, and young men should utterly stumble:31 Yet they that wait upon the Lord shall acquire new strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk, and not become faint.
10 I will be greatly glad in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, with the mantle of righteousness hath he enveloped me, as a bridegroom decketh himself with elegant attire, and as a bride adorneth herself with her bridal array.
Correr para o alvo
Prossigo para o alvo, para o prêmio da soberana vocação de Deus em Cristo Jesus. A corrida da fé exige disciplina e foco.
Propósito e missão
Deus tem planos de esperança para nós. Cada dia é oportunidade de fazer a sua vontade e avançar com confiança na missão.
11 For I alone know the thoughts that I entertain respecting you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you a happy future and hope.
6 Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid and be not dismayed on account of them; for the Lord thy God it is that goeth with thee; he will not let thee fail, nor forsake thee.
10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do with thy might, that do; for there is no work, nor experience, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the nether world, whither thou goest.
7 There shall fall at thy side a thousand, and ten thousand at thy right hand; unto thee however shall it not come nigh.
