You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. In a day like ours, these words spoken by Jesus in John 8, have never meant more. Truth is essential in our struggle against Satan and his schemes. This morning the Apostle Paul will remind us of the importance of truth and where truth can be found.

As July starts and we focus on finishing the second half of the year well, we turn our attention back to building an unwavering faith. In light of this theme, we will study Ephesians 6:10-18 for the next several weeks and learn about the Armor of God. This morning our focus will be on the need for the armor of God and our response to the forces of darkness that we struggle against daily.

Have you ever gotten up in the morning and felt like something was not quite right … you just don’t feel well. You begin thinking of all the things it could be. You begin writing down your symptoms … is it something I think is serious or something I’ll get over in a few days. Self-diagnosis – should I trust my judgment or should I go to the doctor and find out for sure. Do we treat the “symptoms” of our walk with Christ the same way? Do we allow our friends, our co-workers or our family to only “guess” at the symptoms of the presence of Jesus in our lives or do we give Him the credit for what they see in our lives? What is my responsibility?

Every athlete trains to best at their sport. The success we see from the athletes is built during their training sessions that no one else sees. The same is true for the Christian. We run the race “set before us” successfully by following a certain training regimen. This morning our focus will be on our day-to-day training and how it helps us run our race of faith.

Most of us here this morning are billionaires. From a time perspective, if we have lived 35 years then we would have 1,103,760,000 seconds. If we have lived to age 45, then we would have 1,419,120,000 seconds. How does a Christian spend this much time? One way is in prayer. This morning we are going to be reminded of the necessity of prayer to our spiritual life.

A few weeks ago as we started our series of Running the Race, we were reminded by Jesus that everything hinges on us choosing the right race. However, that is not the only decision that we make concerning the race. This morning the Scripture will encourage to have the daily recognition of the need for endurance and the daily decision to keep running.

The most used metaphor to describe the Christian life is a race. To live a life of faith is to run in a race. Over the next few weeks we are going to focus on the race that God wants us to run. This morning, Jesus is going to remind us that everything depends on choosing the right race.
