  “Cling  to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked.” — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT) No matter how chaotic events become, keep your faith [leaning completely on God with absolute trust and confidence in His guidance]. (See 1 Timothy 1:19 AMP) Ensure that you do not suffer shipwreck in regard to your faith. Keep fighting the good fight. Finish the race, and remain faithful. (See 2 Timothy 4:7 NLT) “For in just a little while, the Coming One will come and not delay. And my righteous ones will live by faith. But I will take no pleasure in anyone who turns away.” But we are not like those who turn away from God to their own destruction. We are the faithful ones, whose souls will be saved. (Hebrews 10:37-39 NLT)

“ Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. ” — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT) “Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.” (1 Timothy 4:1-2 NLT)  But as men and women of God, let us fight the good fight for the true faith. Hold tightly to the eternal life to which God has called you... (See 1 Timothy 6:12 NLT) “For, at just the right time Christ will be revealed from heaven by the blessed and only almighty God, the King of all kings and Lord of all Lords.” (1 Timothy 6:15 NLT)

Keep Fighting the Good Fight

Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT) The battle belongs to the Lord, but we have to get up and put the uniform on, every day (truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation and prayer). Our enemy does not take a break and go on vacation. He continually prowls about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. So put on the full armor of God to protect yourselves from the devil and his evil schemes. (Ephesians 6:11 VOICE)  Then, like the Apostle Paul, you will be able to say, “ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. ” (2 Timothy 4:7 NKJV)

Cling to Your Faith

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. — Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV) Don’t allow your faith to be shipwrecked. Fix your hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all people. This hope [this confident assurance] we have as an anchor of the soul [it cannot slip and it cannot break down under whatever pressure bears upon it]—a safe and steadfast hope that enters within the veil [of the heavenly temple, that most Holy Place in which the very presence of God dwells], (Hebrews 6:19 AMP). Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT)

Remain Faithful

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. — 2 Timothy 4:7 (NLT) In 2 Corinthians 11:25-27a (NLT), the Apostle Paul tells us about some of the challenges he went through. He says: “ Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked. Once I spent a whole night and a day adrift at sea. I have traveled on many long journeys. I have faced danger from rivers and from robbers. I have faced danger from my own people, the Jews, as well as from the Gentiles. I have faced danger in the cities, in the deserts, and on the seas. And I have faced danger from men who claim to be believers but are not. I have worked hard and long, enduring many sleepless nights. ” Through all of this the Apostle Paul, knew it was a “ good ” fight. He kept the faith and finished his race. No matter what circumstances you face today, remain faithful to the Lord Jesus Christ, fight the good fight and finish your race.

Avoid Shipwreck

...here are my instructions for you, based on the prophetic words spoken about you earlier. May they help you fight well in the Lord’s battles.

For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. — 1 Timothy 1:18-19 (NLT) Avoid shipwreck by constantly clinging to your faith in Christ. We fight the good fight well, by keeping a firm grip on our faith in Jesus. …l eaning completely on God with absolute trust and confidence in His guidance (excerpt from 1 Timothy 1:19 AMP) Have faith and trust God. Proverbs 21:31 in the Message Bible says: Do your best, prepare for the worst—then trust God to bring victory.

Keep the Faith

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. — 2 Timothy 4:7 (NKJV) The Apostle Paul was imprisoned, beaten, stoned, suffered shipwrecked, and was often in perils (serious danger). He experienced weariness and toil, sleeplessness often, was in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. (2 Corinthians 11: 23-27). But he persevered through it all and finished the race. In spite of the circumstances we encounter may we continue to fight the good fight, and finish the race. We are able to do this as we hold onto our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and stand on the Word of God. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. (1 Timothy 6:12 NKJV)

For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT) Don’t suffer shipwreck in regards to your faith. Fix your eyes on Jesus and fight the good fight of faith. Let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us (Hebrews 12:1b NLT). Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses. (1 Timothy 6:12 MSG)

He's All Sufficient

‘Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You. — Jeremiah 32:17 (NKJV) Don’t let the enemy hijack your hope, nor let your faith be shipwrecked. God is bigger than any challenge, circumstance or storm that comes your way. God is El Shaddai, the all sufficient One.  Nothing is too difficult for our Heavenly Father. You cannot fail with God on your side.

Rely on Your God

Image
Who among you fears the LORD and obeys his servant? If you are walking in darkness, without a ray of light, trust in the LORD and rely on your God. — Isaiah 50:10 (NLT) When the storms of life come rushing in, instead of drifting away from God and allowing your faith to be shipwrecked, draw near and rely on your God. When your journey causes you to wander in the wilderness instead of the promised land, rely on your God. If life situations seem to have you imprisoned, realize that Jesus has proclaimed freedom to those held captive and given a pardon to all prisoners. When all you can see is darkness around you, look up and into the light of the LORD your God.

He will navigate you through the storms and get your vessel sailing on smooth waters again. “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” — Mark 9:23

Exceeding Joyful!

I am filled with comfort. I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation. — 2 Corinthians 7:4b (NKJV) The Apostle Paul was beaten with rods three times, stoned, shipwrecked, in perils (serious and immediate danger) of waters, in perils of robbers, his own countrymen, and the Gentiles, in perils in the city, the wilderness, and the sea, in perils among false brethren; in weariness and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness (2 Corinthians 11:24-27). Yet, in all these things, the Apostle Paul says he was exceedingly joyful. This shows, that our joy is not a matter of having the right circumstances in our lives. Our joy comes from knowing Who our God is and that He is able. Nothing is too difficult for Him. Our joy comes from knowing who we are. We are sons and daughters of the Most High God. He chose us and accepted us into His family. We can hold onto our joy, knowing that no matter what trials come, they will also pass, and God ...
