‘Fixing Our Eyes On Jesus!’
Hebrews 12:1-2.
a) We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses to the Life of Faith in Hebrews chapter eleven.
b) We should throw off everything that hinders us.
c) We should throw off the sin that so easily entangles us.
d) We are to run the race with perseverance the race marked out for us.
e) We are to fix our eyes on Jesus Who is the pioneer of Faith and the One Who makes Faith perfect.
f) For the Joy that was set before Him, Jesus:-
1- Endured the Cross.
2- Scorned the shame of the Cross.
3- Is now sat down at the Right Hand of the Throne of God.
(This QT reminds me that I am to be Fixing My Eyes On Jesus)

‘Quiet Yet Bold Faith In God.’
a) Daniel 3:16-18. The three friends of Daniel would not compromise. True Faith in God does not compromise.
b) Job 13:15. Job’s Faith was strong because He knew God and not because he had nice circumstances.
c) 1 John 2:15. If we are to have bold Faith we should not love the World system.
(Through this Second one I want to have Quiet Yet Bold Faith In God)

Chris.
We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses to the Life of Faith in Hebrews chapter eleven. The greatest testimony is the Word of God itself. I have heard many testimonies in Christian environments and some of them really Glorify God. Sadly there are also many testimonies that are not for the Glory of God but only for the “glory” of the person who is testifying. This kind of testimony is actually incorrect and such testifying should be discouraged in Christian environments.
