a "good fight" because faith in God WINS.
Mark 11:22 tells us, "And Jesus answering
saith unto them, Have faith in God." The
cross reference says, "Have the faith of
God." It's GOD'S FAITH! Wow. That hit
someone big time! The light just came
on in your spirit. Now we can see that
God is saying, "I've given you My faith.
Now use it."
If I gave you a watch so you wouldn't be
late to work, but you didn't wear the
watch and continued to be late, would
you have a valid excuse? The answer is
obvious. No! What, then, is first and
foremost in the heart and on the mind of
God? THE BLESSING! Adam first, then
Abraham. THE BLESSING of The LORD!
Galatians 3:26 says, "For ye are all the
children of God by faith in Christ Jesus."
And in verse 29 we read, "And if ye be
Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and
heirs according to the promise."
Romans 14:23 says whatever is not of
faith is sin. The AMPC says, "for whatever
does not originate and proceed from
faith is sin." Sin, then, is a BLESSING
blocker.
In my opinion, these are the "Big Two":
You can't quench the fiery darts of the
enemy without faith; and you can't
overcome the world without faith. Let's
combine those two statements, one of
which the Holy Spirit spoke through the
Apostle Paul, and the other through the
Apostle John. Ephesians 6:16 says,
"Above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench all
the fiery darts of the wicked." In the
AMPC, that verse says, "Lift up over all the
[covering] shield of saving faith, upon
which you can quench all the flaming
missiles of the wicked [one]."
If the enemy, the god of this world, can't
get past
THE SHIELD—THE COVERING—THE
most important part of God's armor,
