    A Meditation to Set Aside the Sin That So Easily Trips You Up from Hebrews 12:1-2

    This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God’s presence. I’m Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination.  Look for new episodes each Tuesday and Thursday morning. Hebrews 12:1-2 (NLT) “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne.” We strip off the sin that so easily trips us up by “keeping our eyes on Jesus.” Of course we can’t literally see Jesus yet. But we can with the eyes of our heart. So much of the Christian life is living by our biblically guided imagination more than just living by information. “I reject the false promises of sin. I choose to follow the Lord Jesus Christ and I choose to run the race he has set before me so I can have the joy of all of his promises for me in the kingdom of God.” Whenever you get tripped up again by the false promises of sin, just pray that again. Aloud. Part of finishing your race is to keep getting up and continue running the race. Who can you share this podcast with?

Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.” 1 Peter 4:19 NIV “So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.” A combined hybrid version: “When they hurled their insults at Jesus, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, like Jesus, entrust yourself to your faithful Creator and continue to do good.”  Who can you share this podcast with?
