Your Question:
What happens when I'm not strong enough to fight anymore?
Answer:
As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with feeling defeated and unable to fight anymore. When we're not strong enough to fight, it's essential to remember that God gives us other people to help us through difficult times. Just like in a tag-team wrestling match, we can call for help from our fellow believers in the church. We don't have to fight alone; we can touch the hand of someone who can carry us through our struggles. It's also crucial to recognize that our strength comes not from ourselves, but from God. We must get into the best possible spiritual condition to fight the battle of faith. This means enduring hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ, just as 2 Timothy 2:3 says. We must be in the best of spiritual conditioning, drawing on God's power, not through human effort or compromise. When we're in a state of spiritual weakness, we can ask the Spirit of God to enable us to effectively recognize our enemies and deal with them. When we're defeated, it's essential to remember that our faith is not based on any victory we've won. Our faith is based on the Word of God. We must do what God wants us to do, whether or not we're successful. We can face our failures and repent, and we can come away stronger because we know God's standard for what we've done. Ultimately, nothing has any power over someone who has fought the battle before God and won there. We must first get the issue settled between God and ourselves in the secret places of our soul, where no one else can interfere.
