Is It Worth the Fight?

"But when Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men… and went in pursuit." – Genesis 14:14
 
Every now and then, you come to a moment that demands a decision. Not just a feeling or a thought, but a choice. You have to decide whether what you are facing is worth pushing through or worth walking away from. That’s what Abram faced when he found out his nephew Lot had been taken.
 
Lot had made his own choices. He had moved toward Sodom. He had positioned himself near danger. Abram could have said it was not his responsibility anymore. But he did not. He got up, called his men together, and went after him. Because in Abram’s heart, Lot was still worth fighting for.
 
You have something worth fighting for, too. Maybe it is your peace. Maybe it is your marriage or your kids. Maybe it is the dream God placed in your heart that has been buried under disappointment. And somewhere along the way, you stopped chasing it because it got hard. But what if God is calling you to stop letting it slip away?
 
The enemy will not always take your stuff. Sometimes he goes after your rest, your hope, or your confidence. And if you are not careful, you will let go of things that matter deeply because it feels easier than fighting to get them back. But just because it is hard does not mean it is over.
 
Abram did not wait around hoping things would fix themselves. He moved. He gathered the right people, made a plan, and did what had to be done. You may not have an army of trained men, but you do have the presence of God and the power of prayer. You have the strength to fight back.
 
There is too much on the line to just roll over and let the enemy win. So ask yourself again, is it worth the fight? If it is, then get up and go after it. God is with you. And you are not fighting for nothing. You are fighting for something that matters.
