I hope that all of you had a wonderfully blessed Christmas. I am at the end of the book Advanced Bible Studies by E.W. Kenyon. I will be concluding Kenyon quotes at the end of the week / year. I will be starting the new year with another writer, probably John G. Lake, as our focus is early 20th Century Pentecostal pioneers whom you would not encounter in ordinary devotionals.
The good fight of faith is a battle that has been won a long time ago, in which you do nothing but acknowledge the defeat of your enemy and your own victory in Christ. The fight of faith is not a struggle on your part. It is a recognition and a confession on your part of the victory that you and Christ won over the adversary in that great substitutionary battle that took place before He arose from the dead.
You were identified in that. You were crucified with Him. You were buried with Him. You were raised with Him. You conquered the enemy with Him.
Now, with faith planted solidly upon this foundation, you face your enemy without fear. You dare to say, "I am the righteousness of God in Christ."
--E.W. Kenyon
