2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought the good fight,
I have finished the course,
I have kept the faith
Devotional
The only fight that has a reward in the Kingdom of God is the good fight of faith.
Apostle Paul indeed fought a good fight.
He did much more than the twelve disciples, who walked with Jesus Christ for three years during His ministry on Earth.
He was unstoppable; even while in prison, Apostle Paul wrote letters to encourage his converts and the churches he had built for Christ.
Hunger, peril, shipwreck, beating, stoning, and rejection couldn’t stop him from pursuing his God-given assignment till the end.
He typifies Jesus Christ, Who also finished His race
John 19:30
Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine,
He said, “It is finished!”
And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.
Dear friends, what good fight are you fighting for Jesus?
Just as Apostle Paul didn’t complain, never complain about your challenges; keep doing the work that God has called you to do, until the end so that you can be confident to also say that you have fought a good fight, finished the race, and kept the faith.
Prayer suggestion
