279. Fighting For or Against You?

Episode 279-Fighting For or Against You?

There’s a recurring question that has been playing throughout my mind. Are we fighting for God or are we maybe unknowingly, or knowingly, fighting against Him? As Christians we better know that we are in a war. The problem is we likely really aren’t cognitively aware of the war until our attention is called to it. 

The evil one’s main weapon is that little three letter word s-i-n. If he can get us to sell out to sin, he can destroy any influence or effectiveness we have in the world. 

God has weapons too. His most effective weapon is that five-letter, living word of Grace. We have to want to implement the strength of His grace to defeat sin. In other words, we have to push the grace button if we want help. 

We have grace if we have accepted Christ, but we in order to win the war, in order to apply the strength of God’s grace in our lives, we must admit we are weak and need God’s help in order to live in God’s freedom rather than the bondage of sin.

Psalm 139:23-24 NLT is what I want to leave you with. “Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends You, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.”

Make that your prayer.
