Love requires us to fight

The Series, God’s Love…Fighting Forward

I thought the Church might fail God again. We sin against God and reject Christ’s love when we think and say, “Well, I guess this is what God wanted…it is, what it is.” This line of thinking (Presbyterian theology) has no place in a Christian’s life. It is contrary to all Jesus said and performed on earth. This philosophy is a lie from Satan, the father of lies, and causes the church to walk backwards instead of forward to the Coming of Christ.

I was deeply concerned that the Church would not fight, pray enough, or be bold enough to make sure Trump would become President again. Much too often, Church leadership and Church membership become complacent and afraid, not considering what God wants. The Christian community lost about 20% of the churches and membership in America during the Covid 19 shutdown. Most did not fight but walked quietly to the slaughter.

We merely ‘wait and see’ how the circumstances play-out. Where is this in Scripture? Where does God state this directly? We allow doubt and fear to control our thoughts and decisions, not allowing the love of God to work in us. God wants the best for His people and to have His will be done on the earth, not the will of Satan.

It is time to only accept the best from God, to see every verse of the Bible fulfilled, and to abide in His love in all we do, every step we take, and even every breath we breathe with every beat of our hearts. Where is your love for God in making sure His will is done?

I Timothy 6:12, Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou are also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses (KJV). When did God say it would be easy? We are in a battle against Satan and everything that exalts itself against Jesus Christ.

The Church did rise-up and began to fight even as Israel began to fight back in Gaza. Politically God has placed who He wanted in the Whitehouse and many other positions in political office. The Church prayed and stayed on their knees until God’s will was done. The Church became bolder and resisted evil.

Christians began to voice God’s perspective on what was taking place in our nations, states, and communities. I began to see “revivals” taking place in individual lives, families, and places of worship. This is just the beginning! We have yet to see what God has promised in His Word—so many promises are for the taking but not by those who will not fight. At times like this, it is boldness and one’s love for God that drives us to accomplish His will and fulfillment of the Kingdom of God on earth.

So how much do you love? How much will you allow God’s love to be manifested in your life so God can manifest His will on the earth? Without God’s love you will become ashamed, timid, shy, and will make excuses for God. Love demands boldness and always fighting for what is right (God’s laws and rules).

Isaiah 43:1819 should be your vision and purpose in Christ. “Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert”. This is the manifestation of God’s love—it’s time to live it and fight for it!
