Let’s look at some things that can hinder and keep us from fulfilling our calling. We are running a race and must endure to the end (1 Corinthians 9:24-27; 2 Timothy 4:7). Our featured verse (Hebrews 12:1) reveals two things that can keep us from finishing our race and must be addressed, i.e., every weight and the sin which so easily ensnares us.
What might be considered some weights that could keep us from finishing our race? These can be a hindrance when they become more important than following God, e.g., money, security, relationships, etc. Jesus discussed the cost of discipleship in Luke 9:57-62.
Other things will also hinder us from moving forward into the calling that God has for our lives, i.e., not trusting God and not following the leading of the Holy Spirit, not submitting to God’s process, and getting ahead of God to birth things in the flesh.
