Keep Fighting the Good Fight!

 

 Let's face it.... the life of a Christian isn't just rainbows and butterflies all the time. In fact, it's an actual war.

    Satan isn't just some character who sits around in the depths of Hell sulking because he hasn't won yet. Satan is very much real, and he wants you. He wants to destroy you. He wants you to believe that you have no hope, that your so guilty your beyond Gods reach.



    Now I know what your thinking, "well I just won't listen to him... easy as that!" Reality Check. It's not that easy. Satan isn't stupid. He isn't going to come out and tell you, "Oh hey Hannah! How about you go get drunk so that you feel extremely guilty afterwards and eventually ruin every relationship you have! It will be so much fun!"

    No. That's not how it works.



    Satan wants you to sin. Satan wants to tear you apart and the way he does that is by making sin look inticing and temptation seem promising. You can't fall into his trap. The easy way out would be to just ignore him, pretend like he's not even there. That may work for now, but Satan will do whatever he can do get his hands on you and just avoiding him all together is not enough! You have to fight back, but you won't be able to do it on your own.
This is war so put on your armor... The armor of God.


    Like the lyrics of the song Keep Fighting the Good Fight by Unspoken say...
"Until you stop breathing, till you stop bleeding. Until your heart stops kick drum beating.
When it's hard times, when it's long days and the enemy is right up in your face. When your back's against the ropes and you're feeling all alone, keep fighting the good fight!"

    As Christians we will go through trials. We may feel as though we have no hope, like it's not even worth trying anymore. That's when the Devil strikes! Satan will come after you when you are at your weakest point. It's these times when you must fight back the hardest! Dive deep into Gods word, study your bible, pray harder than you've ever prayed, and let your light shine! 

   Just like the song says...
"Even in the roadblocks, even through the rough spots when you feel you're giving all that you got
I'm with you in the next step, giving you the next breath. I'll be the voice saying you're gonna make it.
When you're out there on you're own. You are never alone. Just keep on singing, keep on dancing. Joy will be your banner and my love will be your anthem. You may never know what your tomorrow holds but you can know that I am holding your tomorrow...

Keep fighting the good fight!"
