Luke 12:14 says, “Work hard to enter the narrow door to God’s kingdom, for many will try to enter but will fail.”
The Bible is pretty clear that there is work involved in the Christian
life. The truth is that victory can not be achieved without a battle.
As believers we have a tendency to say that “In the name of Jesus
victory is ours!” But I believe that promised victory doesn’t give us
permission to sit idly by and do
nothing. We must busy ourselves with activating our faith. We have work
to do! And I believe the good news for many us who currently find
ourselves in difficult seasons of life... is: victory cannot be achieved
without a battle.
Be encouraged that the battle you’re facing
is being used by God to draw you closer to Him. It’s being intentionally
purposed to reveal victory you’d never witness had it not been for the
effort it took to achieve.
