Struggle
Struggle
Normally, we think our struggles are against various people in various situations; however, Paul said, we don’t struggle against people; but against spiritual forces. He gives us specific instructions about how to stand our ground. You see in all situations or struggles, we are to follow God’s plan to do battle with the enemy of our souls.
Inspired by the Holy Spirit, Paul wrote, “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” Ephesians 6:12-13 (NIV)
Today, in your life, put on God’s armor and do battle with His strength and instructions.
