1 Timothy 6:12
Amplifed….
Fight the good fight of faith (in the conflict with evil); take hold on eternal life to which you were called, and (for which) you made the good confession (of faith) in the presence of many witnesses.
1 Peter 5:8
Amplifed….
Be sober (well balanced and self-disciplined), be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion (fiercely hungary), seeking someone to devour.
GET SOME GOOD UNDERSTANDING RIGHT NOW. THE WORLD, THE FLESH AND THE DEVIL ARE AFTER YOUR FAITH AND TRUST IN GOD. The enemy tries to keep people from having faith in God. He tries to take the faith of those who do trust in God.
Understand this is a Spiritual fight, and victory comes to the one who learns to use their Spiritual weapons. In Ephesians 6:11-18 Paul tells us to put on the full armore of God.

GOD ALWAYS RESPONDS TO FAITH. HE ALWAYS RESPONDS TO HIS WORD. PUT THE TWO TOGETHER AND YOU HAVE YOUR VICTORY ! YOUR BREAKTHROUGH ! YOUR HEALING ! YOUR MIRACLE ! YOUR ANSWER TO YOUR PRAYER !
