Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. (1 Timothy 6:12 KJV)
Fight the good fight of faith
Giraffe is dropped and kicked
Get up-life is a fight
What are you fighting with?
We must fight with the right weapons / coyote and road runner
LOSER/ pen sword/bringing a knife to a gun fight.
2 Corinthians 10:4 (NKJV)
[4] For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
David fought with a sling shot, but won because it was in the name of the Lord.
Who are you fighting with
RECOGNIZE YOUR ENEMY-WRONG FIGHT GETS YOU HURT AND DELAYS YOUR REACHING YOUR DESTINATION
Ephesians 6:12 (NKJV) [12] For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,* against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
What are you fighting for?
The reason you fight. Just beating the air or do you have a purpose.
LAY HOLD ON ETERNAL LIFE
Often times we don't see the big picture.
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:17-18 KJV)
What ever we are up against is a "light affliction" in light of eternity.
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. (1 Corinthians 9:24-27 KJV)
