YOU GET WHAT YOU FIGHT FOR!!

I heard this statement this morning listening to Ed Mylett, whom I recently found by accident. It just really triggered my thought process. To me it goes right along with my question How bad do you want what you say you want?

I found a goals journal I started in 2017 and never picked it up again to journal just the goal page. Funny thing is some of my goals are still the same. I realize some goals take longer than others but I am taking full responsibility for the fact that I have not accomplished them all or at least but a huge dent in them. Do not get me wrong some have been accomplished I am just admitting that I have slacked on my part in achieving some of the goals.

2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

Ephesian 6:11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.

1 Corinthians 16:13 Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, and like men, be strong.

I believe God wants us to fight to achieve our goals as long as they are in align with his will and his Word.

Too many of us walk around with our heads down timid and afraid to go after the things we want. The reasons are too many to list and different for each of us. Hear me when I say this raise your head fully embrace the power that God has given you.

2 Timothy 1:7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

I believe we should pray first and ask God for guidance in all things. I also believe that we should move, fight, go after the goals we wish to accomplish. How do we do that? I am sure that it will be different for each of us.

I know for sure you need to have goals and dreams. Write them down meditate on them. Pray over them. Then move! Do something anything at all to achieve the goal. Small steps lead to great change. Yes, it may take longer that we like. Yes, it may be hard. Do we serve a God who can handle anything and everything or do we not?

You want to lose weight find a nutritionist or coach! Go for a walk! Eat one less bad food a day better yet eat one good one in its place.

You want to be debt free, stop spending more than you earn, cut back on lattes and drive thru spending. Save 10% Save 5% Save something. Read a book on being debt free. Get an accountability partner.

You want a wife/husband write down everything you want in said partner. Looks, believes, etc. Get a good picture of them in your mind or if you have the talent draw her/him. God will give us more than we ask, if we ask in faith and follow him. Then get out there and meet people. They are not going to just fall out of the sky and land in your lap. You have to do your part as well. Be picky about where you get out to meet them. You want a compassionate person? Go volunteer where perhaps you shall meet someone. You want a good faithful Christian? Go to church, join an online community that shares your beliefs.

Every fight should start on our knees and then we should stand up and fight for the things we want. We should do it with the love of God in our hearts and hurt no one along the way. We should above all honor our heavenly Father in all things. If we walk down trodden and overwhelmed we are not honoring him. He is our healer and provider. He is our strength and he is our coach!

I am reflecting on my goals this month and am already moving forward. I am not waiting for a new year to start. It is a battle on some days, other days it is a piece of cake. I am ready to fight for my goals. I am ready to fight sin and lies and self-doubt and be the woman God wants me to be.

Get inside your mind decide what you really want. What is your purpose? What did God create you to be and do? We know we are all instructed to make his son Jesus known to the world. How we accomplish it will be different for us all. It will take guts, stamina, even some tears but we must fight to become and accomplish all he created us to be.

YOU BE THE FIGHTER FOR YOUR DREAMS AND GOALS. YOU BELEIVE THAT YOU CAN DO ALL GOD HAS CREATED YOU TO DO!

FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU WANT!!
