Spiritual Battle
“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.” (Ephesians 6:12)
I don’t know if everyone feels the spiritual battle like I do but I feel it almost constantly. It seems like life is a struggle, whether it’s making the right choices, fighting to stay healthy, trying to attempt a simple task. It’s just plain hard. But I always know that, although I may feel the battle intensely at times, I’m not fighting it alone. Every time I win a battle, it’s only because my God is fighting it for me. He’s strong when I’m weak. When I’m ready to crumble, He comes along and picks me up and reminds me that “I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)
I’m thankful God loves me that much. No matter what today or tomorrow or next week brings, my God will still be here holding my hand and wielding His sword which the enemy has no power against. And with that thought, I can rest peacefully for nothing can harm me that He doesn’t allow. Thank You, Lord, for that reminder.
