Fight The Good Fight

Happy New Week everyone,

As a Son of God, you are to live and walk by faith, not just casually, but in everything you do. Living the life of faith is putting aside the way of life of this world and embracing the Grace God has given us as real and true. But the issue here is that to embrace the life of faith is not something you do like a cup of tea. It is something that is intense because it has to do with life itself, thus how you live, or better still, your existence as a person. It is not a theory you adopt that you could just drop when you’re tired of it, the life of faith is living your life, but the life God has given you.

The world operates under the evil one which is not in line with the Grace God has given us. Every day, we see this life which the world calls normal trying to get our attention, even when we now know that the life of Grace through faith is the true and real life, the only way is to fight the good fight of faith, but not being distracted by the way of the world.

We are to seek the face of Jesus in all that we do, for He is our source of faith and strength. As we look unto Jesus, we are strengthened, and our faith increases as we stand strong on the solid rock—Jesus [Grace]. We are to cast all our cares and worries aside, no matter what happens, these are also sources of distractions. We must meditate on the word of God, His promises towards us which are true and already in existence. As we believe and continually confess them, our faith increases and the hold of the world on us is weakened.

We all have a mandate which through the leading of the Holy Spirit we would achieve these goals. Christ is our prize which we are to strive for, and not the earthly, temporary trophy. And as Apostle Paul told Timothy in 1 Timothy 6:12 which says, “Fight the good fight of the faith; lay hold of the eternal life to which you were summoned and [for which] you confessed the good confession [of faith] before many witnesses.” AMP, we too should fight the good fight of faith and lay hold on eternal life, and Jesus told us what eternal life is in John 17:3, which says, “And this is eternal life: [it means] to know (to perceive, recognise, become acquainted with, and understand) You, the only true and real God, and [likewise] to know Him, Jesus [as the] Christ (the Anointed One, the Messiah), Whom You have sent.” AMP.

Knowing God/Jesus boosts our faith as we understand what being one with God really means. Stand strong in Christ by fighting the good fight of faith, which makes us sure of what we believe and have placed our life on, it is not for weak links and doubter, but for those who know Who they gave their lives to.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
