During the 11am service of Breathe 08, David George preached about the good fight of faith.  I think most christians don’t want a fight.  We have such a mentality in our country and in our churches that when it is no longer fun I don’t want to do it any longer.  God didn’t call us to be quitters, He called us to be more than conquerors.  In order for us to be that we must fight.  You have to fight your thoughts, your doubts, your fears, your worries, and your discouragement.  It is a constant fight but it is one worth fighting and worth winning.  The bible says that heaven and earth shall pass away but God’s word will endure forever.  The more I feed my mind God’s word, the stronger I become and the better fighter that I am.  The word of God is to the fighting believer what good nutrition is to a top level athlete, it is imperative.  What are you feeding the warrior inside of you?  Are we on a starvation diet or are we getting the spiritual food that we need?  If we just rely on Sunday and Wednesday, we will become weak and sickly spiritually speaking.  The word of God is what gets us through the battles we face.  If I have learned one thing in my 13 month battle with cancer, it is the importance of the word in my life.  It is my confession, it is what I stand on.  God is not a man that He should lie.  What He said in his word, He will do.
