It is a concept deeply embedded in the narrative of the Scriptures, illustrating both the physical and spiritual conflicts that define the journey of God's people. Old Testament Context In the Old Testament, the concept of fighting is frequently associated with the Israelites' battles against surrounding nations. These battles were often seen as divinely sanctioned, with God Himself fighting on behalf of His people. For instance, in <a href="/exodus/14-14.htm">Exodus 14:14</a>, during the Israelites' escape from Egypt, Moses assures the people, "The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still" . This highlights the belief that God is the ultimate warrior who ensures victory for His chosen people. The Book of Joshua is replete with accounts of battles fought as the Israelites entered the Promised Land. <a href="/joshua/10-42.htm">Joshua 10:42</a> states, "Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel" . Here, the success of the Israelites is attributed to divine intervention, emphasizing the theme that God fights for His people. Spiritual Warfare Beyond physical battles, the Bible also addresses the concept of spiritual warfare. This is particularly evident in the New Testament, where the struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces. <a href="/ephesians/6-12.htm">Ephesians 6:12</a> states, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms" . Believers are called to put on the full armor of God to stand firm in this spiritual battle. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the Apostle Paul frequently uses the metaphor of fighting to describe the Christian life. In <a href="/2_timothy/4-7.htm">2 Timothy 4:7</a>, Paul reflects on his own life, saying, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" . This passage underscores the perseverance and dedication required in the Christian journey, likening it to a battle that must be fought with faith and endurance. Divine Assistance in Battle Throughout the Bible, the theme of God fighting for His people is prevalent. In <a href="/2_chronicles/20-15.htm">2 Chronicles 20:15</a>, during the reign of King Jehoshaphat, the prophet Jahaziel declares, "Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's" . This assurance of divine assistance is a recurring theme, providing comfort and confidence to believers facing overwhelming odds. Conclusion The concept of "fought" in the Bible encompasses both physical and spiritual dimensions, illustrating the ongoing struggle between good and evil. Whether in the context of ancient Israel's battles or the spiritual warfare faced by believers, the Bible consistently emphasizes reliance on God's strength and guidance in overcoming adversities.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
