Fight Back!

This is a piece I was led to share with my radio listeners and then the Lord said to share it here so I know this word is for someone.
Fight Back!

Let me ask, did you know that for those of us who are believers in Christ Jesus we are in a constant war? Well, it’s true, and the reason is because we have made the decision to put our trust in Jesus and what He has done for us on the cross. Yet, because of that decision we will have to fight every attack that tries to come our way. Therefore, because of that I’d like to share with you a secret weapon that’ll definitely help you to defeat those attacks. And the secret is, to fight back with the word of God. Yes, fight back! Don’t just allow depression to come over you, don’t just allow feelings like you will always be struggling hover over you, don’t allow feelings like you will never do anything just stay and linger in your mind, don’t allow fear to paralyze you, death to scare you. No! Look all of those attacks and every other kind square in the eye and fight back with the word of God. I mean after all our greatest example being Jesus did when He was tempted in the wilderness by Satan in Matthew chapter 4. This by the way is a chapter I’d highly recommend you go back and read. But anyway, to not just tell you to fight back with the word but to demonstrate just what I mean these are some of the scriptures I fight with and they are: Father, I thank you no weapon formed against me will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Father, I thank you I am more than a conquer in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:37). I thank you I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me (Philippians 4:13). I thank you Father your favor does surround me as with a shield (Psalm 5:12). I thank you, you have not given me the spirit of fear but of power love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7), I thank you Lord, that I shall not die but live and declare the marvelous works of you (Psalm 118:17). Father, I thank youI can be confident of this very thing that you who has begun a good work in me you shall complete It until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6).


Now trust me, this is just a small portion of the scripture I fight with but what I‘d like to encourage you to do is this, when you’re reading the word of God do store some of the scriptures in your heart this way you too, can defeat every evil and foul thing that would dare try to rise up against you and instead receive the total victory Jesus has already provided.


Fight back and don’t just take it.
