2 Corinthians 10:3,4 "For though we walk in the flesh we do not war, after the flesh. (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down strong holds.)
What are you fighting for? What or who are you fighting against? What are you using to fight with? These are several questions, I want you to ask yourself.
Hopefully your are fighting for the Lord. I pray that you a fighting against the Devil and the works of the fles and sin. The tools you need are the word of God, prayer, fasting, praise.
Every child of God wrestles with different temptations and bondage. The decision is are you wanting to break the strong hold it has on you. You have Christ that can pull down anything that may be keeping you from the potential you have in life, to excel
Let me leave you with one more scripture. Hebrews 12:1,2 "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Lay aside anything that hinders you and fight on for God. If you need a prayer partner email me and I will pray for you.
May God richly bless you is my prayer,
Steve

Pastor Steve,
What can I say? You were the best Pastor I ever had. I was thinkiong about you this morning and decided I would try and find you on the internet. I was remembering your sermons you preached and I was really encouraged. I have been having trouble at the church I minister to in music. I am the music leader and I have been discouraged by the attitude of the congregation. It has hindered my ability to worship... But I remembered this morning you told me to stir up the gift of God inside myself. You said that the only thing that stands between my breakthrough is myself. I feel like I have been refreshed now that I remember what you have told me. Florida is going well.. I am a corrections officer for the state of florida... I will pray for your ministry and for your family.... Tell Paula and the kids I love them and appreciated all the things they did for me while I was going to your church. After reflecting on my life and the choices I made to leave your church I admit as a man that I was comletely wrong. I always looked for an excuse to leave but it was me not you or your family... you were nothing but a good pastor and everytime we talked you always tried encouraging me and always cared for my soul.. that means so much to me.... maybe we can work out you preaching down here for a revival at the church of god that I go to in my city... we are on the beach and I am sure you could use a vacation to get away from life... well I love you pastor.... thanks for everything that you did for me... much love --- Rick Metcalf__ p.s. the only reason I am a christian today is because of your ministry. I just wanted to let you know that...
