Armor Up

The world is WICKED.

It shouldn’t come as a shock to any of us.
The Lord isn’t surprised.
He’s been dealing with EVIL since the beginning of time.
The battle isn’t against Target.
The battle isn’t against Starbucks.
The battle isn’t even against the government.
Paul was very clear…
Our battle is against the EVIL FORCES IN THIS WORLD!
Friend…you can worry, you can be scared, you can boycott, you can get mad…and I’m right there with you.
BUT WHAT YOU REALLY NEED TO DO IS π˜Όπ™π™ˆπ™Šπ™ 𝙐𝙋! πŸ›‘️
You need to be prepared to fight the battle that is waging war on your marriages, your children, your relationships, YOUR SOUL!
Put on the armor of God!
OPEN your Bible!
Take your concerns, worries, needs to the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY!!
If He lives in your heart than GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN YOU THAN THE EVIL THAT IS IN THIS WORLD!!
🚨Spoiler alert🚨: Satan loses…but until that time he is going to wreak as much havoc as he possibly can. -Author Unkown

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.
Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.
Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints, and pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.  Ephesians 6:10-20
