“Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.”
Ephesians 6:11 NLT
The devil’s strategy is to maim, kill and destroy. He wants to disrupt God’s plans by waylaying God’s army, us.
Today I did an exam, helped an old friend and mowed the lawn in the hot sun. Meanwhile my guest became annoyed at my cooling of my house. I had to confront and destroy the attack. Then I had lunch and a sleep.
Our enemy is relentless, and we cannot be complacent. For me I must defend my boundaries and stay focused on the path, and keep a good heart. The Holy Spirit is my guide, my instructor and comfort. My comfort is not in people but Him. People will fail me, but He never does.
In warfare we cannot insist on comfort, but toughen up and fight the battle. Our eternity will be filled with comfort, here we fight.
Fight the good fight! Amen!
