A woman went for a medical check-up, and the doctor said, “Based on these results, you will have to live with this condition.” She looked at the report, then looked up and said, “Doctor, your report is noted. But God’s report says, ‘By His stripes I am healed.’ I choose God’s report.”
Friend, whose report will you believe (Isaiah 53:1)? The fight of faith is not first about witches and wizards. It is the fight to stay in faith — to keep believing that your life will align with what God has already said in His Word (Numbers 23:19).
Fight the good fight of faith by standing on the Covenant (1 Timothy 6:12). Most times, what you see around you will contradict what God’s Word says about you. You are not meant to bow to circumstances. You are meant to make circumstances bow — to force them to line up with the Covenant.
What is the covenant? It is everything Christ made available for you through His death and resurrection. But it is one thing for the Covenant to be established by Christ. It is another thing for you to enforce it and make it your personal reality (Romans 4:20).
Stand on God’s Word until it becomes your experience (Revelation 12:11). Your testimony is you speaking out what Jesus has already done. You are announcing what His blood accomplished for you and enforcing it on your situations and circumstances.
Insist on divine health even when your head is pounding (1 Peter 2:24). Insist on provision even when your pocket looks empty (2 Corinthians 8:9). Insist on blessing in the face of generational curses (Galatians 3:13-14). Stand firm on the finished work of Christ.
