Fighting for Your Promise (1 of 9)
Series: Fight

Joshua 6
I want to start a New Series called Fight. The Bible talks about Fighting the Good Fight of Faith! That Jesus has secured the Victory but at times there is still a Fight. We might be Fighting the Flesh (Our Will), Fighting The Devil, Fighting For What Is Right. But make no mistake about it, there is a Fight.
The difference is that we are not fighting in our ability or might. Rather we fight from a Position of Victory rather than fighting for the Victory. We know that the enemy is roaming around seeking whom he may devour. But he cannot devour you when you are aware.
Remember that sometimes life is just a fight at times. But we will not give in but we will Fight with the Grace of God that is within us!

There was 15 feet between each wall so if you got over one you would be killed in the between.
Many times in life you find yourself seemingly in impossible situations. It may be finances, family, circumstances or habits.
This is not the time to shrink back.

Key Pt: God says He will take over, Joshua the battle is not yours but Lord.
