Be Strong in the Lord
Most of us know what it means to be locked in spiritual warfare. There are times when even the strongest believer will be tempted to give up in the battle. That’s why we need to pray for one another. Prayer defeats the enemy right where he stands. Prayer also encourages the hearts of those in the heat of battle.
Spiritual battle can either be a source of great joy for you or the cause of your deepest pain. I implore you to choose to allow a spiritual battle to be the source of your greatest joy and determination. When the enemy attacks, stand firm in your faith by claiming God’s armor and protection.
In your battle, remember to run to Jesus, our Savior, for support and help. He is our Defender. He is our Shield. Always recount Christ’s victory over the cross and death. The only solution to any problem you may be facing, any spiritual battle, is Jesus Christ. He has the power you need to overcome the enemy’s attacks and memories of past defeats.
Scripture Readings: Matthew 14:13; John 6:1-4
