Fight of faith

Fight of faith.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews

Joshua 18.3
Then Joshua said to the children of Israel: “How long will you neglect to go and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers has given you?

The Lord had already given the land to the children of Israel. But there were a few among them who still had not possessed what God had given them in his great grace.

It seems to me that they were either lazy or were just afraid to put up a fight for possession with the inhabitants of the land. Without a fight, there is no possession. In his great love and grace, God has already blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ and has given us everything we need for life and godliness. Healing. Prosperity. Deliverance. Victory. Peace. Its all ours because of the blood of Jesus. Yet there are some believers who still don't enjoy the manifestations of these outstanding blessings that God has given us. Remember, without a fight, there is no manifestation. The fight I am talking about is not a physical fight. Its called the fight of faith. Faith is the only way a believer can possess the possession. Faith is the only way you can experience and enjoy the inheritance that God has given you. Faith is the only way the blessings can manifest. Faith is a fight. If it were not a fight, every believer would have been walking in the manifestation of Gods blessings. We can't afford to be ignorant, complacent, lazy or afraid.

These blessings belongs to you. Its yours. Take it now. Everything Jesus did, He did it so you could enjoy your life and have an abundant life till it overflows.  This is the fight of faith : Hear the word. Believe the word. Meditate on the word. Speak the word. Do the word. Refuse to give up. Walk in love. Give God praise and thanksgiving because its already done. These eight steps in consistency is the fight of faith. You are fighting for something that belongs to you. If you are not willing to fight, you will not enjoy the blessings which the blood of Jesus has made available for you. Take what is yours!  You are not waiting for the blessings, the blessings are waiting for you.

*"I fight the good fight of faith. It's mine and I will not quit till I have the manifestation of my blessings. I will not allow Satan to distract me and I will not permit him to block the blessings. I work diligently on the word and I enjoy the full manifestation of my blessings. Hallelujah. Thank you Jesus."*
