"The game never ends."

That's what a championship coach told his young athletes, after the most spectacular victory of their career.

It was about the secret of winning … again and again and again.

He continued:

"Just because you win one battle there will be another one eventually.

And because of that you have to constantly be training — running, sprinting, lifting weights, chasing chickens around the yard, doing one-armed pushups, eating nothing but raw eggs for breakfast, shadow boxing, sparring, and the list goes on.

If you get lazy, complacent, and start drinking beer and eating bon-bons all day, you’ll start to get weak.

You’ll get exhausted faster.

Your wits will get slower.

Your muscle memories will lessen.

Your technique and power will fade.

And then, eventually, you’ll lose your title, along with your peace of mind and self-respect.”

This of course applies to spiritual matters, too.

A lot of people who joined us for the New Year prayers thought that was all they needed to see them through … to miracles, breakthroughs, and victory all year long.

However, after a while they will find that without constant spiritual practice – through prayer, fasting, Bible study –

they begin to get lazy and complacent.

As the fire goes down., they begin to lose ground.

The enemy strikes back … harder than before.

But that’s not your portion.

The fact that you are reading this now is PROOF enough.

Congratulations!
