Did you know that we are being watched? Giants in the faith are looking down at our progress. The Bible says that we are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. They are cheering us on from the grandstands of heaven. Since we are being observed not only by men in the earth and also angels, but of just men made perfect, let’s us be on our best faith’s behavior. Lol. So that when we make progress, they will applaud. Then later on we will join that great hall of fame of faith citizens. We will take our seats and cheer on those who must follow us.
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God
