It is not a fight against God but a joining with Him against our common enemy. It is a spiritual struggle whereby we stand firm in the truth of God's Word and battle against the world, the flesh, the devil, and our own self-will. Fighting the good fight of faith is not so much hostile combat against a physical enemy, but rising to the challenges of our Christian life or confidently taking hold of the eternal life that is ours in Christ Jesus our Lord. Each enemy is harmful to the soul and detrimental to our spiritual growth and so each must be earnestly resist with fortitude and determination. Praise God that this is not an evil fight but a good fight. The battle has already been won by Christ’s victory on the Cross and we are to face all the challenges of life by maintaining an unfaltering faith in Him, Trusting in His sufficiency to bring us through victoriously. We are to fight the good fight of faith by seizing hold of every opportunity, trusting His all-sufficient grace to bring us through by faith, rather than wilting at the enormity of a problem or caving in to the temptation that faces us. When we fight the fight of faith, we are trusting Him in all things and in so doing we are taking hold of eternal life. The Christian life is a difficult struggle that contains many problematic pitfalls, which Paul describes as a good fight: "Fight The Good Fight Of Faith," were his reassuring words to Timothy, "take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and for which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses." Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, we want to fight the good fight of faith, knowing that the victory over the world, the flesh, and the devil, has already been won by Christ. May we face the challenges of our lives in Your strength and to Your glory. In Jesus' name we Pray you lead us in our GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, AMEN.
