Have you ever waited in line to buy tickets to your favorite sporting event or concert? Maybe you stood in line on Black Friday to catch a super deal on a hot item at Wal-Mart or Best Buy. I can recall standing in line after Hurricane Katrina to receive a Red Cross voucher to replace items I lost in the storm. I remember the wait like it was yesterday! I began waiting in line at 4:00 AM and the longer I stood, the longer the line seemed to become; but I waited patiently because I had an expectation. As time progressed I found myself becoming tired and weary, ready to just give up and walk away but there was something inside that kept me standing, because I knew my goal was closer than it appeared. Today if you find yourself wanting to give up on your dreams because they seem so far out of reach, don’t quit, PRESS ON!

If we would be honest, sometimes we find ourselves ready to surrender just to ease the pressure. When life presses us down, this is not the time to quit, hang our head, throw in the towel, or stop running the race. It’s simply the time to press through, press forward, and press on.

Pressing as defined by Webster’s dictionary means to act upon with steadily applied weight or force, to move by weight or force in a certain direction or into a certain position. In other words, when pressure is applied to an object the sheer force of that pressure will cause it to shift. Whatever is weighing you down will move if you will continue to apply the pressure of the Word of God to the situation. There is blessing in your pressing! You may not see it or feel it but it’s working out for your good. If you keep pressing on, your passion, purpose, and perseverance will cause you to receive your promise! Press like never before to posses your prize!
