Shielded by Faith

Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one . . . (Ephesians 6:16)

 

We believe the Word of God, not the lies of the enemy. Satan will attack us relentlessly and try to destroy our faith, but God has graciously chosen us and covered us with His love. He expects us to harken to His voice, draw near, and lay every care at His feet. He desires to find us in worship, in His Word, and in the closet of prayer. That is where our faith grows and how we overcome every attack from hell. 

We are "more than conquerors," because we stand with the One who conquered all. Our faith and hope are built on the solid rock of Jesus Christ and nothing else. We must encourage ourselves in these things daily, take up the shield of faith, and refuse to be overtaken with fear and doubt. Be strong in the power of His might, because our God is great, and our victory is at hand.

 

Let’s Pray – Lord, we believe You are able to do anything, and You are willing to answer every prayer lifted up to You in faith. We ask for Your great protection, strength, and power, and we will be sure to give You thanks and glory. Amen.
