Good morning! How are we faithing? The battle ground we walk every day should be exposed and treated with tenacity and prayer. The Word tells us exactly what that battle ground is. 

Eph 6:12  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. 

The spiritual component is present in everything we face and if we remember that it will become obvious how to deal with everything. If evil is present then satan and his minion are at work. Look at the shootings, the assaults, the thefts, the murders, the slaughter on October 7th in Israel. Can you see the principalities at work? Check this out;

Job 2:2  And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. 

Satan admits it. He is coming and going seeking who he can devour. But never forget who our savior is and that he already won these battles. We are just near death throws of a defeated enemy. Put this on your heart and mind;

Rom 8:38-39  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

Heavenly Father, Lord, we praise you. We ask for wisdom to be your servants and not let the world alter our faith. Lord, protect us from a defeated foe Lord and be with the innocent on physical and spiritual battle grounds. In Jesus name, amen
