Our Fight

Good Morning.  Here’s Today’s Nugget to chew on:

“Our Fight”

1 Timothy 6:12 New Life Version (NLV)

12 Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the life that lasts forever. You were chosen to receive it. You have spoken well about this life in front of many people.

——–

Further Thought:  So today, let us recognize that our fight is not a physical fight with one another.  Our fight is to ensure we know what God’s word says so we can respond in agreement and maintain that agreement at all costs.  As citizens of the Kingdom of God, we are called to fight [handle every situation] with the Word of God and not with our emotions or physical strength.  Our advisory is after one thing: to steal the word we have sown in our hearts.  He recognizes we can only be defeated because of a lack of knowledge or when we fail to apply the knowledge we have acquired.

So today, if you find yourself in a battle that is contrary to God’s Word [that’s stealing, killing, or destroying], don’t panic. Simply dig into the word and respond accordingly.  Remember you are not in this good faith fight alone, so feel free to phone a friend and ask them what does God’s word say about you are facing.  James 4:7 reminds us when we resist [actively fight against] the enemy with the Word of God, he will flee.

Have a great day, and keep chewing on God’s Word.
