I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race,  and I have remained faithful.
Now the prize awaits me—the crown of righteousness the Lord, the righteous Judge,
     will give me on that great day of his return.
                 2 Timothy 4:7-8a NLT

I promise those who serve and follow Me meaningful, joyful, eternal life.
     Will you decide finally, firmly, and forever to follow Me?

Live unflinchingly for Me.
     Let nothing compete with Me as your life’s noblest purpose.
     Fight until the battle is won—then we will celebrate victory together.
     Die with your boots on—facing forward, facing the enemy.
     Engage the evil one in combat, counting on grace’s ultimate conquest.
     I will win the last war—the roaring lion will lose to Judah’s Lion.
     God protects you.
     Don My armor—never quiver.

Look unforgetfully for Me.
     Struggle on until you see My face—believe Me, I will not disappoint you.
     Dark times are steppingstones to the Light—keep walking with Me.
     On the threshold of each day, resolve to live with My return in mind.
     Whatever happens, it will be worth it when you kneel for My blessing.
     I will return in triumph—My Kingdom is coming and nothing can stop it.
     Glory awaits you.
     Believe My promises—never question.

Last unflaggingly for Me.
     Stay close to My heart and learn the secret of perseverance.
     Run until the race is done—keep the pace, with your eyes on Jesus.
     Never drop out of the Faith Marathon—I will embrace you at the finish line.    
Complete what you started—do not disenroll from Jesus University.
     I will strengthen you to survive—I am ready for any emergency.
     Grace sustains you.
     Hold My hand—never quit.
