Fight the Good Fight of Faith!

Followers of Jesus Christ fight the good fight of faith! 

Life is full of all kinds of battles that continually war against our souls. Some battles are spiritual. We must fight against the demonic enemies of our souls that never cease working to deceive and entrap God's people in their net of evil and deception. 

Other battles are emotional and mental. We must fearlessly fight against discouragement, fear, anger, unforgiveness, doubt, worry, and a host of other emotions and thoughts. Our God is valiant, and He will help us gain the victory! 

Some battles are physical, where we fight against sickness and disease attacking our physical bodies. 

Regardless of which battles we're facing and fighting at any given moment in our lives, we are to fight the good fight of faith and lay hold of eternal life. 

How can we do that successfully? 

  • First, we confess and profess Jesus Christ as Lord regularly and with bold confidence in His ability to save. 
  • Second, we confess and profess the Word of God in every battle we face. We speak it out loud, boldly, and unashamedly! We lay hold of God's promises found in the Bible. We do that consistently moment by moment, remembering that we've been born again to be God's army of over-comers! 

God's word declares we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ, who loved us and gave His life for us. Amen! Don't ever forget that and fight to walk in that promise! All things are possible to those who believe and trust in Jesus Christ! Amen! 

So fight my brothers and sisters in the faith! Don't give up! Don't yield to discouragement and disillusionment! Don't let demonic foes steal your courage and fill your minds with thoughts that throw you into confusion and doubt! 

Fight the good fight because your commanding officer is Jesus Christ, and He has destined us to win by and through the power of the Holy Spirit! Amen!
