Fight!

Catch a glimpse!
Open your eyes!
You think it's a slide.
What if it's really a tug?

Sometimes we run.
Sometimes we sit.
Sometimes we are blind.
Sometimes we think we see.

Wake up sleeper!
Arise lame one!
You are content?
What if you are being slowly killed?

This is a battle.
We already know the end.
The Creator will win.


Normalcy is the screen for deceit.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Your strength will fail.
Assume your Redeemer's strength.

It's not just life.
It's not just a choice.
Every moment, every second.
Fight!

You are frail?
You are weak?
The Lion and Warrior leads.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand (Ephesians 6:12,13).


We are living in an epic battle. The only waiting and resting we need to do is IN Christ. Labour and fight to enter into His rest (Hebrews 4). Live life on guard, with your armor on and your weapon ready (Ephesians 6).


"Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him." (Isaiah 40:10)
