Taking Up The Battle Call
When we become believers we are called. One of the actions that we are called to is the call to battle. We all are under the attack of our enemy.
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Even though there is this invisible power that is out to kill us and steal from us, we do not have to just lie down and let it roll over us. On the contrary, we are equipped to fight back.
Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
In this we see that we are called and equipped to fight against the enemy. Our power is in our God, Yahuah (Lord). We can trust in Him to fight with us as we put on the whole armor of God. Don’t let the evil one run over you today. Fight back! Praise the name of Yahuah (Lord) our God, and He will rise up and destroy the enemy.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are worthy to be praised. You stood from before time began, and You created this place. We exalt Your name, Yahuah (Lord). We need Your kingdom. Send us Your abundant provision today. Forgive us our sin. Help us to return to Your ways. Help us to find Your will for our lives, and to do it. Heal us from within. Deliver us from the evil that would steal and destroy in our lives. Grind to powder our enemies. Restore unto us the position You have for us. Deliver our land from the thieves that would steal it. Show us a sign for good. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
