Ephesians 6:12-13
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, which ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
What of Today’s Verse…
How often do you forget that we are in a spiritual war? Our enemy is deceptively cunning – take away the immediacy of a threat and the danger appears, gone. But he’s there, always. But rather than try to guess his plans and counter all his moves, Paul reminds us to simply take up the tools God has given us and stand up to the evil one.
Let us Pray:
Lord of Hosts, my Great Deliverer, protect me from the evil one by your great power. Give me a sense of urgency as I face Satan and his schemes on a daily basis, but also give me confidence that Jesus has already defeated my foe. Help me to stand against this foe and show myself faithful to you. Through Jesus my Lord and Saviour I pray. Amen.
