1 Timothy 1:18-19 (NET) I put this charge before you, Timothy my child, in keeping with the prophecies once spoken about you, in order that with such encouragement you may fight the good fight. To do this you must hold firmly to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck in regard to the faith.Apart from being physically fit and having the right weapons, battle formations, and tactics, every serious military unit understands the power of morale. If the soldiers are depressed and discouraged, they may lose the battle, even if they have the best weapons and skills.
Today’s scripture shows us that prophecies provide encouragement, and with this encouragement, we are to fight the good fight. There may be specific prophecies you’ve received concerning your life—these should be remembered and used as weapons in spiritual warfare, because prophecies are the Word of God. And we know that the Word of God is the sword of the Spirit. There are also general prophecies about us in scripture. Meditating on God’s Word until His promises and prophecies become personal to you is just as powerful as remembering specific prophecies spoken over your life.
But notice from today’s scripture that to fight the good fight, you must hold firmly to both faith and a good conscience. Those whose consciences are defiled lose the morale for spiritual warfare and victory. A defiled conscience punctures and erodes faith, and without faith, we cannot overcome—because the victory that overcomes the world is our faith (1 John 5:4).
Go into today remembering that life in this present world is an opportunity for you to be an overcomer. This means there is warfare, and the only way to continue overcoming is by holding on to faith and a good conscience.
Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you avoid anything that defiles your conscience.
—Abraham Damilola Arigi
