TEXT EPHESIANS 5:14-17
TOPIC : FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT FAITH
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
No one who is involved in a fight can afford to sleep while the battle rages on.
Sleep is a mark of total oblivion of the reality of the environmental conditions.
We are in a war, therefore we must work with rules.
You cannot live recklessly and expect to survive in a war.
We must refuse to be careless with our lives.
We are soldiers and cannot afford to live like civilians.
We will live in the world, but not like the world.
Fighting the good fight of faith is among other things living our lives according to the dictates of the word.
If we are to win, we must on daily basis keep looking more like Jesus.
If we become like the world, our life will become so devalued that we can never qualify to become witnesses for our Lord Jesus.
He called us to be as lights that are set up on the hills that cannot be hidden.
Beloved, is your light illuminating your surrounding?
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not
bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
