Fellow Soldiers

Paul’s recognition of Archippus as a fellow soldier reminds us that the Christian life is a spiritual battle—and we’re called to fight alongside one another.

“Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved brother and fellow worker, and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house.”—Philemon 1:1–2 NASB

To Paul, Archippus wasn’t just another Christian. Instead of just going through the motions of Christianity, Archippus was a “fellow soldier,” a warrior who recognized that the followers of Jesus are in a spiritual battle.

We have a real enemy and must be armed, spiritually prepared to fight. In addition to personal warfare, Archippus was willing to stand alongside Paul and other believers in this epic battle.

By calling special attention to Archippus, Paul seemed to imply that some Christians were not “fellow soldiers.” Although they believed in Jesus, they didn’t think of themselves as soldiers. They may have gone to church, but they weren’t actively engaged in spiritual warfare.

Today, many Christians don’t have the kind of commitment Paul found in Archippus. They don’t realize we’re in a spiritual war and fighting an enemy who will stoop to anything to defeat us. Satan is the father of lies, and he seeks to distract us, destroy our testimony, and rob us of God’s blessings.

You’re a soldier in this battle. You have a fierce enemy who will use any weapon he can to attack and destroy you and your loved ones—emotionally, financially, physically, and spiritually.

Commit to being a “fellow soldier” in God’s army. Submit your life to Jesus, your Commander-in-Chief. Be on your guard, and stay sensitive to His Holy Spirit. Obey His Word. Serve in unity with your fellow soldiers, your brothers and sisters in Christ.

Reflection Question: What does it look like for you to live as a fellow soldier today?

Faith

Rahab’s story reminds us that faith isn’t about having a perfect past—it’s about trusting a perfect God who responds to bold belief.

“By faith the pr******te Rahab did not perish along with those who were disobedient, after she had welcomed the spies in peace.”—Hebrews 11:31 NASB

Faith is a cornerstone of the Christian life, central to a relationship with God. Without faith it’s “impossible to please God” (v. 6). Faith is so powerful it can change anyone as it did for Rahab.

This woman decided to protect the Israeli spies who had come to Jericho. Acting in faith, she told the spies that her people had heard all that God had done for the Israelites—and their hearts “melted and no courage remained in anyone any longer.” She pointed out that she had “dealt kindly” with them and asked that they spare her family (Joshua 2:9–13).

Hebrews describes her as a “pr******te,” but she didn’t let this keep her from asking boldly. Because she acted by faith, she and her family were spared.

Examples of faith in action fill our Bible. Because of faith, a “woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years” was healed after she touched the fringe of Jesus’ cloak (Matthew 9:20). Because of faith, the daughter of a Syrophoenician woman was delivered from a demon (Mark 7:25–30).

Faith unlocks the power of God. It’s the key to receiving breakthroughs and having our prayers answered.

Don’t let doubt cripple your prayer life or keep you from receiving God’s blessings. Faith led to miracles in the lives of people like Rahab; imagine what it can do for you!

Reflection Question: How might bold faith change the outcome of your current situation?

Acting in Faith

Acting in faith often defies logic, but like Abraham, we’re called to trust God’s promises even when we can’t see the outcome.

“By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and the one who had received the promises was offering up his only son … He considered that God is able to raise people even from the dead.”—Hebrews 11:17–19 NASB

How natural it seems to walk by sight, making decisions based on what we see and doing things that make sense to our natural minds, consistent with conventional wisdom and the ways of the world. Yet the Bible tells us we aren’t to walk “by sight” but “by faith” (2 Corinthians 5:7).

To receive God’s blessings, we need to trust and obey Him, regardless of what we see with our eyes. The Bible teaches us through the example of Abraham; when God called, he obeyed. He set off on a journey even though he didn’t know the destination. He couldn’t see where God was leading, but he continued to follow Him.

The ultimate test of his faith was when God called Abraham to offer Isaac as an offering (Genesis 22). Isaac was “his only son”—the answer to Abraham’s prayers. When God “tested” him, this must have made no sense to him, defying all his instincts as a father.

We can imagine how Abraham must have questioned God. But he acted “by faith,” and when he obeyed, God rewarded him. Abraham passed the test and proved that he was ready for greater blessings.

Remember, “without faith it is impossible to please Him” (v. 6). Faith means obeying God and His Word, no matter what the people around you say, or what your eyes see. Be ready to boldly step out and trust God. He will reward your faithfulness!

Reflection Question: How is God asking you to obey even though it doesn’t make sense?

Complete

To be truly complete is to find your fulfillment in Jesus—not in the world’s empty promises—but in the peace and purpose only He provides.

“You are complete in Him.”—Colossians 2:10 NKJV

What does it mean to be complete? The Greek word here indicates that nothing more is needed. There is total satisfaction.

Many people spend their lives restlessly seeking this kind of fulfillment in earthly pleasures. They follow the latest fashions and trends, seek new experiences, and experiment with forbidden things. All the while, they never discover the true key to fulfillment and completion.

During their search, some look inward; some look outward, but the Bible tells us the only way to find real completion is in Jesus Christ. Only in Him does life make sense. In Christ, we can find the satisfaction and fulfillment we crave.

When He brings everything into perspective, we finally realize our purpose, for in Him “are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (v. 3).

Through Christ, our sins are forgiven, we’re set free from our burdens, and we have access to God’s power and wisdom. We can rest in Him and gain peace and contentment. We can trust Him to meet our needs.

Don’t allow the world to distract you or shape your thoughts and attitudes. Ungodly people may answer life’s questions and offer short-term gratification, but nothing will bring lasting satisfaction and fulfillment—except Jesus. Trust Him.

Reflection Question: Where are you still searching for completion outside of Christ?

Your Shrewd Enemy

Your shrewd enemy exposes the deceptive strategies of Satan and urges believers to stay spiritually alert and armored through God’s truth.

“Such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.”—2 Corinthians 11:13–15 NASB

The overconfident Romans were convinced they had subdued the Germanic tribes north of the Rhine River. But the Roman leader, Publius Quintilius Varus, didn’t realize he’d been deceived. A German noble, Arminius, had become a Roman citizen and was serving on Varus’ staff. Varus had been warned not to trust Arminius, but he ignored the warning, confident in his army.

In September of 9 AD, Arminius led Varus and three Roman legions into a trap in the Teutoburg Forest. The result was one of the worst defeats in Roman history. Soon the Romans abandoned their attempts to conquer Germania.

Varus had all the advantages, but he allowed himself to be deceived by a shrewd adversary. Many Christians make this mistake in their spiritual lives and are overconfident and don’t take their enemy seriously.

Likewise, many believers lack discernment and aren’t on guard against attacks. They fail to “put on the full armor of God … the shield of faith … the helmet of salvation … the sword of the Spirit” (Ephesians 6:10–17). So, they’re deceived as Satan disguises himself as “an angel of light.”

Don’t be a victim of Satan’s deception. Be alert, ready, prepared, and armed. Be on guard against deceit and the shrewd attacks and strategies of your enemy.

Reflection Question: Where might the enemy be disguising lies as truth in your life?

Higher Standards

Jesus set higher standards by following God’s authority, not human approval. Stay firm in faith, seeking His wisdom over the opinions of others.

“Jesus said to them, ‘Neither am I telling you by what authority I do these things.’”—Mark 11:33 NASB

Entering Jerusalem, Jesus was greeted with shouts of “Hosanna!” Then He drove out “those who were selling and buying on the temple grounds,” proclaiming that the temple was not to be a “den of robbers.” Incensed, the religious leaders “began seeking how to put Him to death” (vs. 9–18).

They confronted Jesus, demanding to know the authority for His actions. But Jesus surprised them with a question: “Was the baptism of John from heaven, or from men?” Suddenly on the defensive, they could not decide what to say, responding, “We do not know.” So Jesus would not tell them about the authority for His actions (vs. 27–33).

Jesus showed us that God is our supreme authority. He is sovereign in every situation, and we must submit to Him. Peter told a similar group of religious leaders, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, make your own judgement; for we cannot stop speaking” (Acts 4:19–20).

We’re not under obligation to respond to every accusation, criticism, or question. Jesus did not allow these religious leaders to influence or shake Him; He remained calm and focused. His Father was in control.

Ask God to give you this kind of boldness and confidence. Be so committed to Him that no one can disturb you. Seek His wisdom to know what to say and do. Focus on fulfilling God’s call on your life.

Reflection Question: How can you stay focused on God instead of seeking approval from others?

Skepticism or Faith?

In “Skepticism or Faith?” the scribes doubted while others believed. Choose to trust Jesus fully and experience the power of unwavering faith.

“Jesus … said to the paralyzed man, ‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’ But some of the scribes were … thinking it over in their hearts, ‘Why does this man speak that way? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins except God alone?’”—Mark 2:5–7 NASB

Some scribes joined a crowd packed into a house in Capernaum. All had come to hear Jesus, some interested in His teachings and some merely curious. Suddenly, four men lowered a paralytic through the roof. Moved by their faith, Jesus told the paralytic that his sins were forgiven.

This troubled the scribes. Without bothering to seek God or show compassion for the paralytic, they pronounced judgment. They would not waver from their traditions and narrow interpretation of the Law. Filled with unbelief, they never considered the possibility that Jesus was acting in accord with God’s will or that there was something they could learn from Him.

Many people today are like these scribes. They may profess faith in God, go to church, and even seek to follow Jesus in their own way, yet they have a tough time believing. Instead, they think like the world and place limits on God. They allow doubts and questions to dominate their hearts and minds.

Yet God still performs miracles and does what seems impossible. He responds to people who live by faith, are willing to put aside traditions and not limit Him, and reach out to Jesus for His miraculous touch.

Don’t allow doubts and questions to cripple you or keep you from experiencing God’s power. Commit your needs to Jesus, and come to Him in simple faith. Know that all things are possible for those who believe.

Reflection Question: Are there areas where doubt is keeping you from fully trusting God?

Your Part

In “Your Part,” everyone has a role in God’s Kingdom. Like Nehemiah, serve wholeheartedly and embrace the work He’s given you.

“Next to them the Tekoites made repairs; but their nobles did not put their shoulders to the work of their Lord.”—Nehemiah 3:5 NKJV

Rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem was an enormous project. Most Jews seized the vision and worked hard, including the people of Tekoah. They were assigned to help build the Fish Gate, but for some reason their nobles weren’t willing to do their part.

Perhaps they felt they were too important or had better things to do. Perhaps they were lazy. But through their lack of commitment, these leaders set a poor example and hindered the work of God.

In contrast, Nehemiah was willing to work hard. He could have enjoyed special status. Yet he understood a principle taught throughout the Bible: Everyone has a role to play in the Kingdom of God, and everyone must wholeheartedly contribute.

Paul reminded the Corinthians that all of us are part of the body of Christ. Although the body is one, there are many members. With our unique gifts and responsibilities, we need each other, and everyone’s contributions are important (1 Corinthians 12:12–26).

Today, remember that God has a special call on your life. He has equipped you to accomplish specific tasks for His Kingdom. You are important to Him, and your contribution is vital to the body of Christ.

Dedicate your life to serving Him and fulfilling your role in His Kingdom. Offer your life as a “living sacrifice” (Romans 12:1), and focus on doing your part.

Reflection Question: How can you faithfully fulfill your role in God’s Kingdom?

Guided by Prophecy

When God’s people were guided by prophecy, they found the courage to rebuild. Trust His Word and move forward in faith, despite the opposition.

“When the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah … prophesied to the Jews … [Zerubbabel and Jeshua] rose up and began to rebuild the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and the prophets of God were with them, supporting them.”—Ezra 5:1–2 NASB

Determined to stop the Jews from rebuilding the Temple, the governor appealed to Artaxerxes, king of Persia. The work was stopped, and nothing further happened…until God spoke through two prophets.

One prophet, Haggai, said the people were weak and afraid. They weren’t building God’s house because they were focused on their own needs. But he declared it was time to act, to make God’s house their top priority, and to resume the work (Haggai 1:1–15).

The second prophet, Zechariah, reminded them that God was “exceedingly jealous for Zion.” The Lord was with them, but they needed to get to work: “Let your hands be strong…that the temple might be built” (Zechariah 8:2, 9).

Hearing these prophets, the Jews didn’t wait for additional confirmation, but began to rebuild the Temple. At first the authorities reacted with anger, and the governor appealed to the new king, Darius. He not only confirmed that the Jews had approval to rebuild the Temple, but he also ordered that the Persian Empire pay for the entire effort.

This was possible because brave prophets were willing to speak God’s Word and motivate people to fulfill His mission.

Today, there are many attempts to silence the people of God and prevent us from accomplishing His work. It takes courage to step out in faith, resist opposition, and declare that we believe God’s Word. But God rewards this kind of courageous faith.

Reflection Question: How can you rely on God’s Word when facing opposition?
