TAT #79 The Battle
I need the battle. Without the battle there is no struggle. Without the struggle there can be inactivity and that can be confused with victory and peace.
When I’m in a period of inactivity I let my guard down and one of Satan’s flaming arrows finds its mark. The battle then returns but now I’m wounded and weak, down on one knee; facing the dirt not the heavens. What do I do?
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. (Eph. 6:13)
Even when I’m wounded, weak, and down I will once again take up the full armor of God and stand firm against Satan’s attacks.
Let us not be inactive, it is now time to take up the full armor and prepare for the evil day – the battle is coming.
