Should we wear helmets? Definitely now!

 Yes, spiritually! and The Spiritual Armor also! 







..."be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able 
to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, 
but against the rulers, against the powers, against the 
world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces 
of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Therefore, take up the full armor of God, 
so that you will be able to resist on the evil day, 
and having done everything, to stand firm.

Stand firm therefore, having belted your waist with truth, 
and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
and having strapped on your feet the 
preparation of the gospel of peace;
in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith 
with which you will be able to extinguish all 
the flaming arrows of the evil one.
And take the helmet of salvation and 
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God."...

Now is the time to abhor timidity. The Church must be bold! The time is short and people are still in darkness. For every Christian, put on your armor and know that the Lord will enable you to stand against evil. Prayer is our powerful offensive and strategic weapon, coupled with the Sword of His Spirit. Thanks for reminding us, Jill. We are on a battlefield whether we realize it or not.

Thank you, Nelia! So Powerful! I'm on the bandwagon! :o)

A thoughtful email letter came today with the subject matter of "sweetness". This world is FULL of evil, but we are the LORD's children. We should be looking for all the sweetnesses He intertwines in our own lives and glorify His name every day!

This world is NOT our home, but as we travel through, let's look beyond the evil yuck to His sweetnesses and live to shine for Him so others may see and desire our joy!
