💌 Purposed Women Weekly Devotional: Fight the Good Fight

Published about 1 month ago • 1 min read

Theme: Fight the Good Fight

Scripture: “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.”

— 1 Timothy 6:12 (NKJV)

Reflection

Faith isn't always going to feel easy.

There will be moments when trusting God requires you to fight against fear, discouragement, distraction, doubt, and the temptation to give up.

Paul tells Timothy, “Fight the good fight of faith.” Not every fight deserves your energy...but your faith does.

Sometimes fighting the good fight looks like continuing to pray when you haven't seen an answer. Sometimes it's obeying God when you don't understand. Sometimes it's choosing God's truth over what your circumstances are telling you.

And sometimes the fight is simply refusing to quit.

Purposed Woman, God has called you to something greater than what you can see in this moment. Don't allow temporary opposition to make you release what God has called you to hold onto.

Keep believing. Keep praying. Keep obeying. Keep showing up.

Your faith is worth fighting for. 💕

Prayer

Heavenly Father,

Give me strength to fight the good fight of faith.

When I become weary, discouraged, or distracted, help me hold tightly to You and what You have spoken.

Give me courage to keep praying, believing, obeying, and walking in the purpose You have called me to.

Help me remain faithful, even when the fight is difficult.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Application

Ask yourself:

“What has been fighting for my faith lately?”

Identify the fear, distraction, disappointment, or doubt that has been pulling you away from what God has spoken.

Then choose one intentional response of faith this week...pray again, open your Bible again, obey what God told you, or take the step you've been afraid to take.

Remember:

You don't have to fight every battle...but you do have to fight to remain faithful.

Don't surrender what God has called you to because the fight became difficult. ✨

💌 Purposed Women Weekly Devotional: Walk in Your Authority!

Theme: Walk in Your Authority Scripture: “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 NKJV Reflection You can possess authority and still live as though you are powerless.
