Day 6:
(Scripture)
Ephesians 6:11-18
Evening Devotion
You cannot stand against the enemy when you are uncovered. Satan looks for the believer who is vulnerable so he can attack them. Sometimes these are attacks are mistaken to be your friend, coworker, family members, or even a stranger. We must remember that our battle is not natural, but supernatural and Satan will bring any distraction he can in order to defeat us. Even in prayer.
This is why we must wear the armor of God even when we pray. Our pray life is an opportunity for Satan to attack our minds to weaken our prayers. They want us to put down our sword of the Spirit and the shield of faith so we have no spiritual weapons. God wants us to be spiritually offensive. If we are paying attention, we will structure our prayers to make war in the heavenlies. Don’t just pray defensively that your needs be met. Pray to re-establish the supernatural position in your life. The enemy is attacking. It’s time to declare WAR!
(Prayer)
God Almighty. I thank You for being the answer to every situation. When I am in time of need, You are the Way Truth and the Life. For every problem, You are the solution. I cannot choose any other because there is none other.
Lord. The enemy desires to bring destruction into our lives, but You have commanded us to cover ourselves with the heavenly spiritual armor to stand against the tactics of the enemy.
God, may we keep each piece of the armor on and stand firm in every prayer and spiritual battle. Just one missing piece is all he needs to see us vulnerable and put us in a position to lose our offensive advantage. Every inch of our lives that we have given to Satan, we take it back and declare war on hell. We ask for You to show us our proper position, so we can operate from a position of victory and not defeat.
In Jesus’ name!
Amen!
