The weapons of our warfare

“For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.

If there are weak points in your armor, he’ll find them, and he’ll exploit them relentlessly. But you’re also not alone out there. You’re standing shoulder to shoulder with legions of other faithful soldiers, and you’re going to be looking out for each other on the field.

You’re also fighting under the banner of God Almighty, Creator and Sustainer of the universe. “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31). Not Satan. Not the rogue cherub who thought he could replace his Creator. Not the twisted, fallen angels who followed him into darkness and

They can be intimidating, yes, but they’re on the losing side. Elisha’s words of comfort to his servant all those years ago still ring true today: “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them” (2 Kings 6:16). This fight is not beyond you. It is not more than you can handle. With the strength of God and His armor, you’ll be ready to topple the strongholds of the enemy and stand your ground against his attacks.
