TRANSFORMher Purpose - Leadership Kit

In this study, we will discover how to win the race God has put before us and live the abundant life He desires for us. Paul’s words imply we all have a different race, but even so we are all connected. Knowing that – Welcome to TRANSFORMher Purpose! Now, let’s get started and discover our unique race, get in our lane, and learn how to win!

n 1 Corinthians 9:24, the Apostle Paul pens these words under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.” Life today is challenging enough, but the challenge is even greater when we choose to run everyone else’s race rather than our own. God’s Word tells us in Jeremiah 29:11, “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’” From His declaration we know He has a unique plan for each of our lives. Later in John 10:10, Jesus tells us more about His plan for us, “The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.” God has plans for us, plans to give us a future and a hope, a rich and satisfying life. Are any of us here, living the life God has for us? Most of us would say no, so how, then, do we achieve this incredible life God has planned

This week, we will seek to answer the question, “What race are you running?”

This week, we continue our study as we train to win our God-given races. Like anyone training for any type of race or competition, we have to train, continually.

This week, we’ll discover how to define our win while running our race. Read Luke 21:19. What does this verse say about winning?

Having learned to define our race, how to train to win, and what a win God’s way is, this week we are going to learn to face our biggest obstacle to winning – fear!

Part of our training to win our race, we need to get clear on the crucial priorities – God, love, wisdom, and more!

As we run the race God has called us to we need to know just who we are running for! We have to understand we, as believers, are all on God’s team.

This week we’re going back into God’s Word from some inspiration from a few (there are many) of the Biblical women who won the race God’s way!

In our final week, we will bring all we’ve learned together to define our wins, not only for the entire race, but those we experience while running our race God’s way.
