FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses(I Timothy 6:12).

In the journey of life, battles are not optional but mandatory. Even at birth, a child must be made to cry. At that point, he fights to overcome the force that wants to keep his lungs closed; so as to 
live. Henceforth, various battles begin. 

When one becomes born again, the dynamics of the fight changes. He will still fight but this time around it is a good fight. The bible calls it the “Good Fight of Faith”. The fight is a good fight; the weaponry is also a unique one, FAITH. So a believer fights the good fight of faith, this fight is 
termed a good fight because the end is determined from the beginning. Victory is guaranteed at the end. It is a fight to be won. Halleluyah!

It is like watching a replayed boxing match whose winner you already know. The same way, God is not bothered about what fight you may be involved in now, because he already saw you emerge the winner. 
Remember, He is the God that sees the end from the beginning. 
You have already overcome the world (I John 5:4). God once told the children of Israel to go fight and take over the land He gave them (Deuteronomy 2:24). Though there were giants dwelling on the land. He said, I have given them to you. He expects you to go fight and possess your inheritance. The reason why many of his children are not possessors is because they are not fighters. Fight for your marriage, fight for your children, fight for your home, fight for your loved ones.

“... by whose stripes you were healed” (I Peter 2:24). Fight for the divine health God made available to you in Christ and refuse 
to allow sickness to reign in your body. Fight now!

The above scripture doesn’t say you will be healed, or shall be healed; but you were healed! It is already settled, release your faith now and don’t you dare allow those symptoms to deceive you otherwise. 

Ephesians 6:10-18  Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. 

7 Major Requirements For The Fights:
1. The belts of truth buckled around your waist.
2. The breastplate of righteousness
3. Feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of  peace.
4. The Shied of Faith for your defense.
5. The Helmet of Salvation.
6. The Sword of the Spirit; which is the word of God.
7. And Prayer.

1 Timothy 1-18  Timothy, my son, i give you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by following them you may fight the good fight, 
Paul encourages his spiritual son, Timothy to fight for his prophecies. A times when prophecy is spoken over you, you don't go to bed and sleep and expect the manifestation of the word spoken to you. You fight for it in the place of prayer and confession for the manifestation. Glory!

Romans 8:28-30  And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

PRAYER:
1. I am a victor in life in the name of Jesus.
2. I cannot be stopped because the greater One lives in me in Jesus name.
3. I am more than a conqueror in Christ.

THE WIFE WHO WAS NOT CONDEMNED.

 A certain man married a beautiful lady. Somebody used to visit his wife everyday to give her advice. After some time, the adviser would also have sex with her. One day, the man discovered his wife having sex with the adviser. When I heard about this, I was expecting that the husband would condemn his wife and drive her away but he did not. He rather turned to her and said, "I love you and I want you to be my wife. It does not matter what has happened. You are the only wife I want." This was an amazing show of love to a wife he should have condemned. From where I come from, by now the woman would have been sacked from her home, and viral on social media, etc. This is how Jesus' love is. He sees everything but He does not condemned us!  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:17) halleluyah! He so much loved you, sent his only Son as substitute for your sins, that whoever believes in him will not ...

THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 2 DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE!

 "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting". You may not know what the future holds and that is the more reason why you should hold unto the one who holds the future. God knows what lies ahead of us this year and as we connect with him through prayer and fasting he empowers us to overcome, prevail and win over every battle, challenges and attacks of the enemy that may come our way. From the Scripture above tells us about the response of Jesus to his disciples when they were faced with an impossible situation that has to do with a man whose son was sick. The disciples tried all they could but their efforts to heal the young man was not fruitful. When Jesus showed up, the seemingly impossible situation became possible. Jesus was able to heal the man's son. So the disciples were amazed and they asked Jesus why they couldn't do it.  I declare: May Jesus shows up in your marriage, shows up in your finances, family in the name of Jesus. Where your strength...

KEEP YOUR TONGUE AWAY FROM EVIL

As the Scripture says, “If you want to enjoy life and wish to see good times, you must keep your tongue from speaking evil and stop telling lies.  -1 Peter 3:10 (GNT) A lot of people desire not only to have a successful life, but also to enjoy life, but the reality is this; only few adhere to the principles that would eventually lead to having an enjoyable and productive life. From our scriptural text, we understand that one of the keys that guarantee access to an enjoyable life is to keep our tongue from speaking evil and to stay away from lies. Your life moves in the direction of your words. If you don’t like where your life is headed, then it is time to examine what has been coming out of your mouth. Any man that cannot have control over his tongue, cannot have control over his life as well. Proverbs 6:2 NIV says, “you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth". A lot of people have been trapped by the words they said. The struggle and ...
