Run Wild

Series: Wild Goose Chase

David McQueenOctober 26, 2025Weekend Services

Passage: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

For the past eight weeks, we've learned what it means to chase the Wild Goose, the Holy Spirit, and to break free from the cages that hold us back: responsibility, routine, assumptions, guilt, failure, and fear. This final week is an invitation to run wild; to live fully alive in Christ and run the race He's set before us. Paul writes, "Run in such a way as to win the prize" (1 Corinthians 9:24). We don't run aimlessly or in our own strength; we run with purpose, courage, and eternal perspective. Every believer has a unique race to run, one that only you can finish. The Holy Spirit empowers, directs and sustains us as we live out God's purposes. When we live with heaven in mind, each act of obedience (big or small) becomes part of an eternal victory. Freedom isn't just being released from the cages; it's learning to soar and run wild with God's Spirit leading the way!

Text: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

 

To win our race, we must make sure we're  on running the right race. 

 

When we  - or when Jesus returns - we will be asked two things. (Heb. 9:27; 2 Cor. 5:10; Eph. 2:8-10) 

 

What did you do with

 

What did you do with the  I gave you? 

 

Our  into heaven is based only on trusting Jesus. But the  we receive in heaven is based on how we used the life God gave us. 

 

God counts each of us of such  that He designed things for us to be a part of with Him in this life that no one else can do. 

 

Part of our race is joining Jesus is bringing , hope, and justice to the earth. (2 Cor. 5:19-20) 

 

What the enemy wants to do is to find every way to  us from running our race. 

 

To win our race we must make sure we live our daily life with the day of  in mind. (2 Tim. 4:7-8; Mat. 25:21)

 

Most steps - not all but most we take following the Wild Goose will be small. But don't mistake small for
