Today I would like to look at Ephesians 6 verse 12 to 17

12)For we are not fighting against human beings but against the wicked spiritual forces in the heavenly world, the rulers, authorities, and cosmic powers of this dark age.
13)So put on God's armour now! Then when the evil day comes, you will be able to resist the enemy's attacks; and after fighting to the end, you will still hold your ground.
14)So stand ready, with truth as a belt tight round your waist, with righteousness as your breastplate,
15)and as your shoes the readiness to announce the Good News of peace.
16)At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the Evil One.
17)And accept salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you.

We are not fighting against humans, but against satan and his fallen angels. They are a formidable force to be reckoned with, and their aim is to defeat and destroy the church of Jesus Christ, that is all the believers. The outcome of the battle is known, in Jesus we have the victory. The fight however continues until Jesus comes again. Jesus gives us the power to endure this fight through His spirit and the armor He gives us as described in the verses above.

Have a wonderful day.
