Faith Is

Faith is neither a belief in abstracts nor things yet to be seen, but a belief in things yet to appear which you have already seen.

FIGHT OF FAITH

When Paul declared in 2 Timothy 4:7: "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith," he was declaring a righteous victory over every satanic and human obstacles and opposition of faith that ever stood against his destiny and calling in Christ. Like him, everyone called into Christ must likewise face satanic, human & institutionalized obstacles and opposition to faith. Our world is so full of them now...even persecutions, executions & the so-called hell-engineered political correctness. And the saints must overcome all these to one day declare a like testimony.

In these days therefore, when men are so adept at subtly interpreting scriptures to suit their fleshly lusts, whims & caprices, often out of cowardice, spinelessness, greed & the fear of contending for the Truth, true believers must not be swept away by such delusions robed in appealing garments, but must like Paul, defend themselves against the aggressive spirit of this age, which is evidently marked by seductions, compromise and lukewarmness.

We must do so by holding on to the Word of Truth and fighting the good fight of faith. Wielding the Sword of the Spirit where fleshly wisdom contends. To deliver ourselves from the stronghold of every sin and hell-inspired delusions, especially secret sins and discouragement. Than applying scriptures deceitfully to justify and conceal ourselves in the pleasures of sin. For the scriptures can give life. But they can also kill. For when we abscond from the Spirit or reject its dealings with us, and embrace the manipulation of its letters, the Scripture KILLS!

"For the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life."
(2Cor. 3:6)

I PRAY FOR US TODAY THEREFORE, THAT NONE OF US MAY FALL PREY TO THESE END TIME SATANIC & HUMAN SNARES, IN JESUS NAME! BUT THAT ALL MEN MAY FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH. AND IN GLORY DECLARE TESTIMONIES OF EVERLASTING VICTORIES, IN JESUS WONDERFUL & PRECIOUS NAME...I pray this comes to you today by revelation in Jesus name. AMEN!
