Ephesians 6:11: "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil."
Soar! In 66 days
Ephesians 6:11: "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil." In our busy lives, we tend to forget that there is a war being waged for our souls. Every time we wrestle with sin, the devil is trying desperately to tear us away from God. This can seem scary, but Ephesians promises us that if we guard ourselves with our faith in Christ, we can withstand these attacks. If we commit our hearts to God, then He will enable us to rise in the midst of this war and overcome the schemes of Satan.

Faith-In-Action:
Change Your Perspective About Enemy Attacks
Resist! Your enemy, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith. 1 Peter 5:8–9 Many Christ-followers live in unnecessary fear of the enemy or take a posture of defeat when the exact opposite should be true. The more we come to comprehend the victory of Jesus accomplished for us, the more we can stand boldly against the forces that oppose us. We are not victims; we are victorious in Christ. We are not defeated, we are more than conquerors in Jesus. Standing firm in this truth is what enables us to resist when the enemy hurls fiery darts of temptation, accession, or condemnation.
The Battle is the Lord's!

This week, we'll be transitioning into the idea of rising in it. This idea involves the difficult truth that more often than not, there are things that we can't change. Sometimes, there may not be a way out. But that doesn't mean that we can't soar. In fact, our darkest days can even strengthen our faith in God. It is in these moments that we learn to place all our hope in Christ.

Last week we talked about what it truly means to "rise past" the things we face. We talked about how we must look beyond our present troubles and our past hurts in order to grow spiritually. Now we must dive deeper into how we can actually practice this in our own lives. After all, letting go of our burdens is far easier said than done. So how, then, should we approach them?
