“I press on toward the goal for the prize
of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:14 (ESV)
The “prize” of the Christian life is that “upward call.” It is a call that goes far deeper than teachings and doctrines. It is fueled by an inward press of the Spirit of God that causes us to reach beyond our own limited horizons to something inexplicable.
The upward call is reflected in the life of Abraham, who left the Ur of the Chaldees seeking and longing for something he could not comprehend.
