Preparing to defeat darkness

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Ephesians 6:11 KJV.

We are surrounded in a fallen world by people who have no desire to live for our king. Temptation is everywhere. The flesh is weak and we may fall to the enemy. It is so important that we armor up and stand shoulder to shoulder against the powers of the dark world. We are weak, but through God we are strong.

If you do not know that there is a spiritual battle going on, then you are probably losing the battle. The spiritual forces of evil are alive and very real. Standing alone is a dangerous spot to be in. Alone we can be picked off and swallowed by darkness.

I encourage you this day to take a stand against evil. Get into the word of God and there you will find His will for you. Keep company with Jesus and become more like Him as you are transformed into the person He intended you to be.

Christ is King of all creation. Jesus is not the opposite of Satan. Satan is a mighty power and force, but the power of Jesus is the almighty. We have victory through Jesus. He is the mighty conqueror and we can conqueror the powers of darkness through him.

“Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."

Have a hunger for God and welcome His Holy Spirit to guide you. Develop a relationship with God through prayer and listen to Him.


Shalom,
