Fight the good fight with all thy might

What a treasure this hymn is - to be reminded that when we fix our eyes on Christ, the Author and perfecter of our faith, that when we run the race with persevering love, we will one day live with Him in our permanent Home.

“Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to know Him. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth. ” (Hosea 6:3)

Direct our heart, Lord, into the love of God and into the endurance of Christ. May our heart be directed into the endurance of Christ so that we may enjoy and experience this endurance in our daily life 🙏.

I was singing this in my dream

I'm so moved by this hymn! It's a powerful reminder that God is always with me, guiding me through life's ups and downs. The lyrics speak directly to my heart, filling me with hope and assurance. I'm blessed to know that God hears my prayers and is always working for my good. This hymn is a beautiful expression of faith and trust in God.

It's truly a blessing! It touched my soul and spirit, reminding me of God's unwavering love and care. I'm grateful for the encouragement to look up to Him, even in challenging times. The promise that God will answer my prayers and wipe away my tears brings me such comfort and peace. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness!

Whenever am getting week in spirit Gods unfailing love drops within me to strengthen me and today as we celebrate Easter in remembrance of his death on the cross of Calvary, let know He is still the same today and forevermore. I needed the words and I got it here God bless you for sharing.

The first stanza "Fight the good fight..." always motivates and encourages me.

Whenever I read the books of Timothy, the song strikes a reminder to sing this song but most especially when I am challenged or given a thought to a challenge, this song encourages me.

Praise God.

A short but poignant hymn capturing many verses from 1 and 2 Timothy.

2 Tim. 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have kept the faith...

1 Tim. 6:11-12: But you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, Godliness, faith, love, endurance, meekness. Fight the good fight of the faith; lay hold on the eternal life, to which you were called and have confessed the good confession before many witnesses.

2 Tim. 2:12: if we endure, we will also reign with Him.

2 Timothy 4:7-8: I have fought the good fight, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, with which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will recompense me in that day, and not only me but also all those who have loved His appearing.

Oh Lord! We give ourselves to you to follow Paul's exhortations to hasten your return!

This just popped into my head after my arthritic pain made me resolve to 'fight the good fight' until He comes for us. Haven't sung it since I was a kid, but the words came back to me pretty well. Like Catherine Mary, I was so comforted by the line 'Faint not, nor fear.. ' It was like My Jesus was giving me a spiritual hug right there! We are so blessed to have these wonderful old hymns still in circulation. They speak to us and encourage us, as with every generation.

This is one of my favourite hymn; it motivates me and strengthens me. This inspirational hymns also reminds us that we would be faced with trails, temptations and challenges but that we should trust in God with all our heart and lean not on our understanding nor strength. By doing so, we shall surely triumph.

But this night l had it's 1. 30 AM l was awoken with the last verse running around my my head..

Faint not nor fear, His arms are near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear; ..

And thank you Lord for loving me and sending me this just when l needed You! AMEN!
