“…fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses…” 1 Timothy 6:18 (NKJV)
In my Christian walk, I have been opportuned to see different people who have had great successes and many others who have been faced with serious challenges. Many, after a series of challenges were never victorious, while some others came out triumphantly. One striking similarity among those who could not come out of their challenges was the level of their doubts and the hold their challenges had on them. They got so overwhelmed that they could not master the ability to tread on them. As Christians, we must understand that life is a long journey. So, we are required to have strength for long journeys and not quit under pressure. You cannot win in life if you quit too easily. You can’t win in life if you don’t have staying stamina. How your journey in life will end largely depends on how willing you are to fight for what you want. How long you can persist in faith amid a trial determines the victory you receive in that trial.
Therefore, one thing you must understand and come to terms with in your heart is that The devil cannot take what belongs to you if your faith is alive. The devil only has access to tamper with a man’s life when he has successfully destroyed his faith. This is the reason he throws challenges and trials before you. He does this in the hope that you will cave under the pressure of what you are facing. But I advise that you should not fall for his old and ancient tricks because no trial has a long life span. If you can hold on to your faith in the midst of the trial, the challenges will disappear before you know it, and you will be free. So my advice to you today is to keep your faith alive, don’t let your faith die because it is what you need to win the battles in your life. It was for this reason the Bible says, “…the just shall live by faith…” Romans 1:17 (NKJV)
TODAYS RHEMA
Faith is the victory that overcomes every challenge, don’t lose it under pressure!
Confession for the Day
Thank you gracious Father for putting in me the seeds of faith that are required to turn my life around. I hold on to my faith in your ability to give me my expected end and I declare that the devil can’t steal what you have given me in Jesus name. Amen!
