KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE GOAL
“But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ“
2 Peter 1:5-8 (NKJV).
Before the season to bear fruits, there may be a season of storm.
As a branch, you need to hang on to the vine.
You may see other branches bearing fruits, while you are also receiving the same amount of nutrients from the vine. And this may stir some level of frustration and anxiety, especially when there is no understanding of how things work.
The experiential knowledge of God’s work, enables you to supply God’s restraining force. This then makes it possible for you to exercise perseverance in the face of adversity.
You will not be in haste to prove yourself or to bear fruits.
Understand that fruit-bearing is a matter of expression. And when you grow deep in this knowledge of God’s work, you demonstrate “patience-endurance”.
Your desires and appetites are already under the influence of God’s power. Therefore you easily remain resolute and maintain an undisturbed composure.
The heart of endurance is the focus of glory.
Our Lord Jesus pressed on to the end because He kept His eyes on the goal.
Perseverance is a product of tested faith.
Don’t throw in the towel when you are confronted with huge challenges. The more challenges persist, the more you also persist.
“Tough times never last, tough people do” Robert Schuller.
You are built more and more into maturity as you practice perseverance in the face of challenges.
“Knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing” James 1:3-4 (NKJV).
You practice perseverance through the joy of the Spirit (James 1:2)
In Acts 5, we see how the apostles, led by Peter were bearing great Kingdom fruits. They worked great signs and wonders, sick people and those tormented by unclean spirits were healed in the streets and believers were increasingly added to the Lord in their multitudes. (see verses, 12-16).
These were glorious times. There was so much supply of the Power of the Holy Spirit. Then the high priest and his council laid their hands on the apostles and put them in prison.
These apostles were taken out by an angel of the Lord. And yet they continued to preach in the temple as they were instructed.
They could have decided to leave for the sake of their lives.
But because they are yielded to the restraining force of the Spirit, their desire is what the Lord wants them to do.
They were arrested again, beaten and warned or commanded not to preach the name of the Lord.
Beloved, see the reaction of the apostles:
“So they brought the apostles back in and had them severely beaten. They ordered them never again to speak in the name of Jesus and then let them go. The apostles left there rejoicing, thrilled that God had considered them worthy to suffer disgrace for the name of Jesus. And nothing stopped them! They kept preaching every day in the temple courts and went from house to house, preaching the gospel of Jesus, God’s Anointed One!” Acts 5:40-42 (TPT).
This is the meaning of PERSEVERANCE!!!
This is the meaning of UNDISTURBED COMPOSURE.
Beloved we are not of they that draw back. God is pleased with us, as we persevere and refuse to draw back. (Hebrews 10:38)
No persecution should be enough to stop you.
Don’t allow the success of others to make you think you have failed. Continue in doing what the Lord has instructed you to do.
Don’t stop here, neither should you turn to the left nor to the right; KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE GOAL.
Let these words of Paul (the apostle) to Timothy, be your words to yourself:
“The confidence of my calling enables me to overcome every difficulty without shame, for I have an intimate revelation of this God. And my faith in him convinces me that he is more than able to keep all that I’ve placed in his hands safe and secure until the fullness of his appearing” 2 Timothy 1:12 (TPT).
Selah.

This episode has really touched my heart. It felt like God was speaking to me when I was reading the message .
This scripture really stood out for me;
Let these words of Paul (the apostle) to Timothy, be your words to yourself:
“The confidence of my calling enables me to overcome every difficulty without shame, for I have an intimate revelation of this God. And my faith in him convinces me that he is more than able to keep all that I’ve placed in his hands safe and secure until the fullness of his appearing” 2 Timothy 1:12 (TPT).
Selah.
Apostle Bennie God bless you so much. God bless you beyond what men can think of.
I’ll not stagger in the face of persecution
Thank you, Lord Jesus.
I am glad to be reminded that, often times before fruit bearing, there are unexpected storms. Things to make us draw back, things to discourage us. People easily give in at this time because they have not had experiential knowledge of the word that makes them exercise divine restraint or perseverance.
To persevere in hard times is to set your focus on the glory of God. “Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith”
The strength of your heart to look opposition eye ball to eye ball and shout devil, you are a loser, you are a lying, you cannot success because “GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN ME” is a product of the perseverance that emanates from an indepth relationship with the word.
IDONT QUIT, ITS NOT IN MY DNA.
I ENDURE TO THE END!
Thank you Lord Jesus
I don’t fret nor faint
I don’t give up
I endure to the end
I maintain an undisturbed composure
Thank you Jesus when we set our focus on Christ the challenges becomes a milestone to keep us going. Because they come to stop you so if you are not stopping then it means it has given you an opportunity to learn how to over come other ones that comes your way through the experience and direction of the Holy ghost
Thank you lord Jesus
Oooh yes
I endure to the end.
I have divine capacity.
