“ The Armor of God” In the Christian life we battle against rulers and authorities (the powerful evil forces of fallen angels headed by the devil - who is a vicious fighter). We face a powerful army whose goal is to defeat God’s church. When we believe in Christ these demons become our enemies and they try every device to turn us away from him and back to sin. Although we are assured of victory, we must engage in the struggle until Christ returns, because Satan is constantly battling against all who are on the Lords side. We need supernatural power to defeat Satan and God has provided this by giving us His Holy Spirit within us and His armor surrounding us. Remember Jesus said to Peter; “Upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.” Matt 16:18 |
