CAN YOU FIGHT?

You being a Christian doesn’t make a peace-deal with our Arch – enemy the devil. It is only a sign to him that a great terrorist has been borne.
The bible told us in the book of Ephesians 6 : 12
“We war not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers…..”
People of timbre and caliber, people of “thick” muscular strength People who have power to devour, who can do great mischief People whose sole aim is to destroy any available “weak” Christian.
God himself said:
“Be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world……..”
The statement I have overcome the world is not an empty promise But it needs a “catalyst” before it could work The needed “catalyst” is encrypted in the statement
“FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH”
“Spiritual Fight” : is not just the mere “throwing of punches , wrestling , or “matcheting” the enemy but we have to launch an attack using our “Time tested and trusted” weapon known as the greatest weapon and the best one can bank on for any fight The two-edged sword:
“THE WORD OF GOD”! The greatest enemy of the devil is the “word of God”- Jesus Christ commanded the devil using His word He said
“Get thee behind me, oh devil Immediately the devil left him alone And He has commanded us to do same, not to seek an alliance with him but to,
“Resist the devil, and he shall flee! Thus, mere “binding” and “loosing” in prayer would not suffice; we need to know the right “word” to use for every invasion and attack of the devil. For instance: An attack on our Health means we are to tell the devil the word of God concerning our health Because the word of God said in the book of
Isaiah 53 : 5 “……by his stripes, we are healed……” so I’ve got to be healed, devil you are a liar .then we can command the spirit of sickness to leave and it shall flee A death threat by the Devil means we are to look in the book of psalms and remind god of his promise of life.
……”I shall not DIE! But live to declare the wonders of his name” (emphasis mine)
The Holy Bible should be a believers most loved and admired book and not a “comic”, catalog” or immoral magazines” In conclusion: For every new level you attain in the “journey of faith” there is always a corresponding attack of the devil but there is a word of God that gave us the assurance that we are “WINNERS”
“Revelation 12 : 11 says …..”And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimonies………”
You need not give the devil a chance to mess up your life and purpose ’cos he’s got no good intentions and plans for your life because it is clearly written in the Devil’s mission statement
: ! to kill and destroy ! to waste great minds !to weaken Christians
………..”but the son of man is come to give us life , That we may have it more abundantly……….” All you need is just a “word from God” for every situation
