TOPIC: THE CHARACTER OF WINNERS: THE POWER OF TRAINING

SCRIPTURE: Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. [25] And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. [26] I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: [27] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway - 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

MEMORY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 9:27

DIGGING DEEP: No world champion in any given sport just emerge from the blues, they train before obtaining it. The truth is that process is a major key to greatness. When God takes you through process, it might be painful and uncanny but it will sure bring you into glory. Every elevation is a product of process. Even the outpour of grace and the anointing comes via process.
Our anchor text states that "But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." For a believer training is a never ending process on the walk to the kingdom. Nothing makes one irrelevant like the lack of training.
Why is training important:
1. Empowers Us to Overcome: To overcome the world we must be trained in the school of the Spirit. God wants us to be overcomers and not people that are constantly slammed to the floor by satans antics every now and then (Ephesians 6:12-14)
2. Empower Us to Subject Our Body: One evident product of training is that our flesh is put under control. The body is subject to God and the laws of our Father.
3. It Disciplines Us: Nothing ends our connection to God like indiscipline. We must discipline ourselves to focus and pursue after the kingdom and it's righteousness.
4. In Training We Learn: In training you learn kingdom principles, you learn, practice how to listen and hear from God and alot more.
5. In Training We Make Corrections: Nothing empowers connection with God like correction from Him. God trims us and removes errors from us and our inner man is been renewed each day.
6. It Develops Us: We become developed and equipped for every good work.
How Do We Train? 
1. Be A Word Addict
2. Be A Prayer Person
3. Be Engaged In Periodic Consecrational Fast
4. Be Totally Aligned To The Holy Ghost
I pray for you today, God is empowering you and His best will be revealed through you in Jesus' name.

PRAYER: O Lord i recieve the grace to be deligent and persistent in growing in You in Jesus' name.
I refuse to be tired in pursuing after You in Jesus' name.
