Read : Ephesians 6: 11-12

“Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life. ...”

- I Timothy 6: 12

True Christianity is the fight of faith. In this respect, the Christian warfare is utterly unlike the conflicts of the world. It does not depend on the strength and size of the army. It is not waged with carnal weapons but with spiritual. Faith is the hinge on which victory turns. If we would fight successfully we must put on the whole armor of God, and never lay it down till the end of our life. Not a single piece of the armor can be dispensed with. The belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith, the sword of the Spirit - the Word of God, the helmet of salvation - each and all are needful. An old veteran said, “In heaven we shall appear not in armor, but in robes of glory. But here our weapons are to be worn day and night. We must walk, work, sleep in them, or else we are not true soldiers of Christ.”

Dear friends, let us remember that the eye of our loving Savior is upon us morning, noon and night. He will never allow us to suffer beyond what we are able to bear. He knows what battles and conflicts are, for He Himself was assaulted by the devil. Let us remember that thousands of soldiers before us have fought the same battle we are fighting and come off more than conquerors through Him who loved them. They overcame by the blood of the Lamb - and also may we. So let us not lose heart. A few more battles, then the last trumpet will sound, and Jesus our Lord will come. Then we will bid eternal goodbye to warfare and join with Him joyfully.
