The thief comes only to
steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the
full. John 10:10 NIV
Here we go again, destroying each other and stirring
up hate among our brothers and sisters! Continue to serve Satan and you will
continue to see destruction, hate, devastation, dislike of others (because of race, religion, or nationality) and segregation. Satan knows those who are weak in heart and mind and uses them
to stir up chaos and separation. He also knows that if you are “deeply” rooted in God, he
cannot stir you up, so he uses manipulation through others to prick our hearts.
We better put on our armor “right now” to
stop the fiery arrows of Satan. Ephesians 6:10-18 says, “Last of all I want to
remind you that your strength must come from the Lord’s mighty power within
you. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand safe
against all strategies and tricks of Satan. For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood,
but against persons without bodies—the evil rulers of the unseen world, those
mighty satanic beings and great evil princes of darkness who rule this world;
and against huge numbers of wicked spirits in the spirit world. So use every
piece of God’s armor to resist the enemy whenever he attacks, and when it is
all over, you will still be standing up. But to do this, you will need the
strong belt of truth and the breastplate of God’s approval. Wear shoes
that are able to speed you on as you preach the Good News of peace with God. In
every battle you will need faith as your shield to stop the fiery arrows aimed
at you by Satan. And you will need
the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit—which is the Word of
God. Pray all the time. Ask God for anything in line with the Holy Spirit’s
wishes. Plead with him, reminding him of your needs, and keep praying earnestly
for all Christians everywhere. The Living
Bible (TLB)
