Be cause we are at war 24/7
1Pe 5:8 BE SOBER, BE VIGILANT; BECAUSE YOUR ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, as a roaring lion, walks about, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR: 9 WHOM FIRMLY RESIST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions in the world are being completed in your brotherhood.
Eph 6:10-18 Finally, my brothers, BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. 11 Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world's rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Therefore take to yourselves the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Therefore stand, having your loins girded 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, TAKE THE SHIELD OF FAITH, with which you 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, 18 PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION IN THE SPIRIT, and watching to this very thing with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.
We can recognize the voice of the enemy in our mind, when thoughts tell us: you are not useful, you are not good enough, God does not do anything special for you, the truth is that you will never go far, nobody really loves you. Look at you, God is Holy: He doesn’t love you! If these thoughts have crossed your mind, you can be sure that it is the enemy who has been speaking to you. God never tells us that in his Word. Reject those thoughts & don’t listen to the Devil.
1Jn 4:9-10 In this the love of God was revealed in us, because God sent His only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation concerning our sins.
Jam 4:7 Therefore submit yourselves to God. RESIST THE DEVIL, AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
2Co 2:10-11 But to whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For if I forgave anything, for your sakes I forgave it to him in the person of Christ; 11 THAT NO ADVANTAGE MAY BE GAINED OVER US BY SATAN; FOR WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF HIS DEVICES.
Spending time reading & studying the Word will guarantee that we become doers of the Word, the Victory is ours and we are more than Conquerors.
1Jn 4:4 You are of God, little children, and you have overcome them, BECAUSE HE WHO IS IN YOU IS GREATER THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD.
Rom 8:37 But in all these things WE MORE THAN CONQUER THROUGH HIM who loved us.
1Jn 5:4 For everything that has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. 5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
And we will be part of the Army of Christ called to give fierce battle against the enemy, to liberate the souls of the Sons of God that he still has captive. That's an honor ... Why stay with the spectators?
1Pe 5:4 And when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a never-fading crown of glory.
Love in Jesus… Alejandro
