press on

Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?
How then will the Scriptures be fulfilled, which say that it must happen this way?”
Matthew 26:53-54 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.26.53-54.NASB1995

God’s plan, just like Jesus, may include our own persecution to the death. Everyday, everything, in our day has already been sifted through the hands of God. I often ask myself, “Why are you complaining, worrying, upset? Give it to God and press on.”

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:14 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.3.14.NASB1995

Pressing on we are trusting God to complete His plan in us and through us.

Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,
Hebrews 6:1 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.6.1.NASB1995
‭
🌹So let us know, let us press on to know the Lord.
His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth.”
Hosea 6:3 NASB1995‬

Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:12 NASB

Laid hold of as a chosen instrument, vessel, by Christ Jesus, I am a bond-servant of His and nothing can separate me from the love of Christ.

In devotion to You, Jesus, who has already laid hold of me, I will press on to the upward call of God. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I will fight the good fight of faith with a clear conscience. I pray for self-control in all things, setting aside any hindrances and sin that entangles so I can run the race with endurance, disciplining my body by making it my slave and putting to death deeds of the flesh and living by the Spirit. Help me to run in such a way that I will win and receive the crown of life and the wreath of glory. Thank You, Jesus, for my life. I pray I will bring honor and glory to Your name as I press on. In Your name I pray, amen.
Acts 9:15/Philippians 1:1/Romans 8:39/1 Timothy 1:9/1 Corinthians 9:25-27/ Hebrews 12:1/Romans 8:13/1 Timothy 1:12/1 Peter 5:4 NASB

We are a work in progress. We have not yet become perfect but when the perfect comes the partial will be done away. Grow in Christ, letting Him chip away the partial to bring you to perfection.
1 Corinthians 13:10

🌹I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
Galatians 2:20 NASB
