The writer is challenging them to arise in their faith and that applies to us as well. We need to run the race set before us and to run with endurance. In other words, there are many troubles and trials that come from the turbulence of life and, by faith, we run the race set before us, enduring many troubles.
They were being pressured and even persecuted by the other Jews in Jerusalem to go back to the ways of the Old Testament, back to the laws of Moses, and instead of giving in, instead of giving up, they needed to press on and be stronger in their faith.
In chapter 10 he wrote, “You have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.” Enduring trouble is part of faith. At least it should be.
In chapter 11 he reminded them of Moses who chose to endure ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin; considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than all the treasures of Egypt; for he was looking to the reward. He endured much ill-treatment because of faith.
Moses had everything a man in the world could want. He grew up as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. He had position, he had privilege, he had access to wealth and all the accouterments that come with it, and no doubt he could have had as many wives as he wanted. But he wanted more than that; those things are all tied to the world, his sights were heavenward.
In chapter 12 he connects the enduring of trouble and trials to the discipline and instruction of the Lord. In other words, God uses difficulties for our instruction; it strengthens faith when we look to Him in the midst of the storm.
But if they shrink back, if they give in to the pressures and persecution and go backward in their faith, they can be sure that they will receive discipline from the Lord, for those whom the Lord loves He disciplines.
And in a same way, God is also our Father and if He brings discipline, it is for our instruction, it’s to strengthen our faith, it’s for our good.
