TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN SOUL-WINNING (5): A FIGHTING SPIRIT
No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
Mark 3:27 (KJV)
A fighting spirit is a spiritual disposition of not taking a “NO!” for an answer. It is developing a victor’s mentality. It is coming to a point of only having triumphs or nothing. Instead of not winning, let the fight continue – that is a fighting spirit. What we are saying today is that it takes a fighting spirit to be successful in the soul-winning business. This is so because our text associates the unsaved as the captives of Satan, the strong man. To let go his captives, you must put up a fight that will result in binding him. II Corinthians 4:3-4 says, ‘3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of HaMashiach, who is the image of Yahweh, should shine unto them.’ The god of this world being referred to is Satan. He is responsible and behind every unbeliever’s blindness to the light of the glorious gospel. For you to succeed in letting the unsaved to see the light of the gospel you must take care of the strong man Satan. This is done in intense intercessions.
A fighting spirit is the answer to the attack of discouragement. In the harvest field, you will come across things and behaviours that will try to put you off and discourage you. It is at that point that a fighting spirit comes to your rescue because it would not accept a no. Until victory is achieved, a fighting spirit fights on. It knows no discouragement. Apostle Paul is a very good example of a fighting spirit. They stone him, beat him and in some cases he was left as dead but as soon as strength comes into him, he gets up and off to the next town to preach. He laid necessity upon himself for the gospel. He is either preaching, following-up or praying for souls. Never tiring, never depressed! The work of the gospel is a task that must by all means be executed even if it means to lay down his life, Apostle Paul was willing. At a point he said that he was not just willing to be bound in Jerusalem but to die for the name of the Lord Yahushua (Acts 21:13). That is a fighting spirit, beloved.
How do you come about a fighting spirit? It comes by a baptism of fire of the Holy Spirit. There is a baptism of fire beloved. It is an experience where the Holy Spirit sets your spirit, soul and body on fire of enthusiasm for the gospel. That fire came upon Jeremiah that even when he does not want to speak the word, it begins to burn in his bones that he cannot be at peace until he speaks out the word (Jeremiah 20:9). When that fire lands upon you, it intoxicates your spirit making you restless until you are running with the gospel. That fire imparts on you a fighting spirit. Even in your personal affairs, you are guaranteed to win when the fighting spirit is in operation in your life. No circumstance overwhelms you. You are so dogged until you weary every devil out of your affairs. Beyond excelling in the gospel, a fighting spirit helps you win at every turn of life. Go for it.
REMEMBER: A fighting spirit is the answer to all assaults of the devil in the harvest field and in your personal life.
CONFESSION: I triumph in every place by the power of the Holy Spirit. No situation overwhelms me because greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world. Halleluyah!!!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree the release of a fighting spirit in your life today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
