Friday | Forgetting What’s Behind, Looking Forward to What’s Ahead
Faith Promise Week 2
Friday, November 7, 2025
Reading For Friday | Matthew 6:19–24 | Philippians 3:8–9
Paul writes, “Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize.”
Our world constantly urges us to build bigger, climb higher, and collect more. Yet Paul reminds us that the prize worth chasing isn’t success or security—it’s Jesus Himself. As we close this Faith Promise week, may we remember that knowing Him and making Him known is our greatest goal, our deepest joy, and our eternal reward.

JOURNALING & REFLECTION
As you spend time with the Lord, invite Him to search your heart and shape your desires. Use the questions below to journal your thoughts, prayers, and next steps of obedience.
- What do you need to “forget” or let go of to move forward in faith?
- How has God been reshaping your priorities this week?

PRAYER PROMPT
“Lord, I want to forget what is behind and move forward in faith. Reshape my priorities so that my life reflects Your heart. Give me strength to pursue You with joy and endurance.”
As you conclude this week, remember: nothing compares to the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus our Lord. Every sacrifice made, every gift given, every step of obedience taken in His name will echo in eternity.
He is worth it—because He is worthy.
