“Fight the good fight of faith! Take hold of eternal life! You were called to it! You’ve received it! It’s yours!” I Timothy 6:12 stirs our deepest impulse to go forth, empowered by the Holy Spirit, overflowing with hope, exuding faith! It compels us to be strong in the inner man so we may conquer hearts for His glory!!
And once we have embraced all that commitment to Christ is meant to be in us, we will allow it to become all it is meant to be through us! The walk of faith, the fight for faith, the pursuit of faith are not just for ourselves. They are the crucial first step, but if we stop there, we have missed our commission.
When we have enlisted in the Lord’s army of believers, when we have dawned the accouterments of our warfare—salvation, truth, patience, humility, godliness, love—it is then that we must go forth, bearing the precious seed that has come to fruition within us!
As we use love and truth to conquer hearts, many who are lost and alone in life’s journey from dust to dust will see and understand and embrace the fullness of Christ’s gift to those who will but believe and receive. A heart will have been conquered for Jesus. A child will have been born into His Kingdom.
