The Fight of Faith

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith...2 Timothy 4:7
This are the words of the great Apostle Paul. There are some who teach that those Christians who engage in spiritual fighting are living below their privileges. They insist that God is willing to do all our fighting for us. Their pet slogan is, “Let go, and let God.” They say that the Christian should turn the battle over to Christ. There is a half truth in this, yet only a half truth, and carried to extremes it becomes error. The half truth is that the child of God has no inherent strength of his own: says Christ to His disciples, “Without me, ye can do nothing” (John 15:5). Yet this does not mean that we are to be merely passive, or that the ideal state in this life is simply to be galvanized automations.

1 Timothy 6:12 says "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses". In other words, the fight of faith depends on you. There are two parts to play, God plays His part and you have to play your part. It is not God's responsibility to play your responsibility, It's your responsibility to submit yourself to the word of God and allow it inundate your entire being. The one who plays his part by fighting and using his faith will be unstoppable, unshakable and connected with the Truth.

Whatever the challenges and circumstances there are in life, your fight of faith can overcome them. Abraham staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God-Romans 4:20. Refuse to give in or give up, it's a fight of faith.

It is my responsibility to always play an active role in living in God's Word. He is my guide and I am His faithful servant. His instructions are clear and I live by faith. My life is victorious because of yielding to the Holy Spirit!
