Fight The Fight!!!

"Fight The Fight"

I say these words to everyone in a battle you didn't ask for, you didn't want, you didn't even see it coming, but yet here you are...Fighting the fight up close and personal.

You see, David when you think about it in 1 Samuel 17: He was in control of the situation with Goliath the whole time; even though he was younger and smaller in size. Still, he was in control of that big giant known as Goliath.

David was in control because his was a battle, was a fight he chose to be in, he wanted to be in....UNLIKE many of you reading this, David asked for what had come upon him, he wanted it. So he could get the chance to whip Goliath for how he had disrespected the Army of The Living God.

And whipped him, he did...God got glory out of David's victory that day.

BELOVED, I know right now....You can't see anything good coming out of that battle, out that fight. You can't even began to imagine how God could any glory out of that messy situation.

May I remind you that ALL things; not some things, but ALL things work together for the good...Rom 8:28

May I also show you in scripture that David credited God for getting him out a messy situation too...Understandably so, every situation is not a pretty situation, but God.

David wrote: I give you all the credit, God — you got me out of that mess, you didn’t let my foes gloat.
Psalm 30:1 MSG

David goes on to write: God, my God, I yelled for help and you put me together. God, you pulled me out of the grave, gave me another chance at life when I was down-and-out.
Psalm 30:2‭-‬3 MSG

Sounds like David would later be in a battle, in a fight far worse than the one everybody knew about with Goliath.
He just didn't see Goliath as that big of a problem. If he could whip a lion & a bear, he could whip Goliath.

So I say to SOMEBODY: Forget what everybody knows..You're not trying to glamorize this moment, glamorize this season, you're just trying to get through it.

Let God get the glory in due time, because there will be a story, a testimony IN IT ALL. Continue to lean on Him for help...and keep fighting. Don't quit! Fight the fight, the good fight of faith. 1 Tim 6:12 KJV
