Learn To Fight

1 Timothy 6:12

You have to fight for what you want and what you want to see in a positive sense.

You have to fight against and for your reality.

1 Timothy 1:18

There is a type of fight that is good, there is a type of fight God commends. It is called the fight of faith!

This is a fight God has called you to.

As a member of God's kingdom you need to know how to fight the fights God wants you to fight.

In God's kingdom we are called to a divine wrestle, we are called to strength, for we are soldiers!

In God's kingdom we are called to fight.

Ephesians 6:10,12

Angels of God are citizens of God's kingdom just like everyone who has given their lives to the Lord.

Angels of God know how to fight!

Revelation 12:7

The scriptures inform us they are strong.

Psalm 103:20

In a fight, it is the stronger individual who wins while the one who wasn't strong enough looses.

Satan wasn't strong enough and he was thrown out of heaven, he lost the fight!

Revelation 12:7,8

In the kingdom of God we declare strength upon ourselves.

 Joel 3:10

In God's kingdom we are called to prevail despite the attacks of the gates of hell.

Matthew 16:18

You have to learn to fight.

Spiritual warfare is a type of fight. It is a fight against the spirits that use people, come against us, and resist God's agenda on the earth.

Prayer is a type of fight.

You will not always want to pray.

You will have to fight fatigue, the flesh, situations, circumstances, distractions and the whispers of the enemy to pray consistently.

Obeying God is a type of fight because there will be temptations to disobey God on our journey.

You will have to fight fear to obey God sometimes.

There will be times you'll have to fight battles in your mind, especially when you are struggling to understand why God has given you certain instructions.

Staying and living in faith is a fight, It's a good fight, a commendable fight.

It's a fight because the enemy attacks our faith.

We have been called to stand for God but the enemy will try and take us off our guard.

Having done all, stand.

Ephesians 6:13

Developing good habits is a fight. 

Regular, physical exercise is not always easy.

Developing excellence in our spiritual standards, our parenting, our jobs/career, our marriage/love life is a fight.

It's a fight because many issues of life especially mediocre minded people will resist excellence and try to pull you down.

The right thing is usually tougher to do than the wrong thing.

This is a reason grace is needed for our life's journey.

Living a disciplined life is a fight.

1 Corinthians 9:27

Living a life of love will have times it will be a fight to live.

Mark 12:31

It is not easy to love certain people, especially if they have caused you pain.

Romans 12:18

Operating with the eyes of faith can be a fight, especially for those just growing in it.

Looking past the natural is alien for many, seeing with the eyes of our spirit, and seeing with the lens of the Word over our natural eyes is a fight.

God's grace is needed for the fight!

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
