We just added “Get Back Your Fight” by Sarah Reeves to Project 88.7!
I appreciate Sarah’s honesty in this song because I know what it’s like to be in a dark season of life and wonder if I’ll ever get out of it. Chances are you know what that’s like too. You might feel buried under the weight of your struggles, and you feel like you’ll never get your fight back. That’s exactly how the devil wants you to feel.
As followers of Jesus, we have a spiritual enemy named Satan who loves to plant lies in our minds that wreak havoc on our emotions and make the usual trials and burdens of life feel even more burdensome than they would normally feel. The devil loves to make us feel hopeless and like God has abandoned us. He loves to try to get us to give up on life, our faith, and hope for a better future.
The good news, though? God encourages the discouraged. When the Enemy is trying to sow doubt, fear, and hopelessness into our lives, God is doing the opposite. God is speaking strength, peace, faith, and courage to our hearts. And God is fighting for us to bring healing, restoration, and purpose out of the situations we are facing. And often, God uses other believers–just like He uses Sarah in this song–to speak that encouragement to you and remind you that God is fighting for you, and He will help you get your fight back.
“But God, who encourages those who are discouraged, encouraged us…” (2 Corinthians 7:6 NLT)
“Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.” (Proverbs 12:25 NLT)
