be strong!

 "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:10-12 (ESV)

It is my responsibility to be strong in the Lord, to put on the whole armor of God, in order to fight the good fight against the spiritual enemies. The devil has many schemes and he uses them. I must be alert and move forward in the strength of the Lord.

Praise the Lord! For You are my strength and my salvation. Help me to put on and keep the whole armor of God. Let me take up the sword which is Your Word and to keep it well oiled with prayer.- Amen!
