Your Question:
what's the point of fighting when everything's against me?
Answer:
I understand what you're saying. You feel like everything's against you, and fighting seems pointless. But let me tell you, as a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with this same feeling. The truth is, we often fight because of our desires that aren't being met. We want something, but we don't have it, and that leads to quarrels and fights. James says in the Bible that we don't get what we want because we're looking in the wrong place. Instead of placing demands on our spouse or others, we should look to God to meet our needs. As a Christian, I know that I'm in a spiritual battle. It's not just about fighting against people, but against the spiritual forces of evil. The apostle Paul says that our struggle is not against blood and flesh, but against the rulers, authorities, and cosmic powers of darkness. This means that we need to be spiritually strong and vigilant in our fight against sin and temptation. We can't just sit back and do nothing; we need to be proactive in our battle against evil. For me, the point of fighting is not just about winning or achieving a certain goal. It's about serving the Lord and standing for what's right, even when it's hard. When I'm fighting for what I believe in, I'm not just fighting for myself; I'm fighting for God's glory. And that's what gives me the strength to keep going, even when everything seems against me. As the Bible says, "The violent take it by force" (Matthew 11:12). We need to be willing to take a stand and fight for what's right, even if it's difficult.
