It is amazing how Satan attacks our thoughts, when we least expect it. It might be a thought of someone who hurt us or something else. All Satan has to do is to plant the thought in our minds to start the spiritual battle. It is a very difficult battle because it is a battle within our minds and hearts. When we do not have faith in our Almighty Gods Word we have defeat! For to triumph and withstand the attacks from Satan can only be done through the power of our Almighty God! But to have the power of our Almighty God we have to have faith in Jesus Christ for our salvation [faith, trust, believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of all sins which gives us salvation, redemption]. Ephesians 1:7 IN WHOM [Jesus Christ] WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD, THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS [which gives us salvation], ACCORDING TO THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE; Ephesians 2:8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: 2 Corinthians 12:9 Amplified Bible But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able TO STAND AGAINST THE WILES [trickery, deceptions] OF THE DEVIL. 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. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about WITH TRUTH, and having on the breastplate of righteousness [salvation; for when our sins are forgiven we become righteous, without sin, therefore we have salvation, redemption]; John 14:6 JESUS SAITH UNTO HIM, I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME. Ephesians 1:7 IN WHOM [Jesus Christ] WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD, THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS [which gives us salvation], ACCORDING TO THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE; Back to Ephesians 6:10-18: Ephesians 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace [The Gospel of Grace: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4]; The Gospel of our salvation, The Gospel of Grace: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I [Paul] declare unto you THE GOSPEL [The Gospel of Grace] which I [Paul] preached unto you, which also ye have received [believed], and wherein ye stand [trust, FAITH]; 2 By which also ye ARE SAVED [saved from the Tribulation, Hell and The Lake of Fire; Salvation, Redemption], IF [conditional by choice of Faith] YE KEEP IN MEMORY [Believe, Trust, Faith] what I [Paul] preached unto you, UNLESS YE HAVE BELIEVED IN VAIN [having no meaning or likelihood of fulfillment]. 3 [This is The Gospel of Grace] for I [Paul] delivered unto you first of all that which I received [from Jesus Christ], how that Christ died for our sins [for the forgiveness of all sins: past present, future] according to the scriptures [Gods Word]; 4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures [Gods Word]: Back to Ephesians 6:10-18: Ephesians 6:16 Above all, taking THE SHIELD OF FAITH, WHEREWITH YE SHALL BE ABLE TO QUENCH ALL THE FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED. Ephesians 2:8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: Back to Ephesians 6:10-18: Ephesians 6:17 And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION [The Gospel of Grace: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4], AND THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD: 18 PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION IN THE SPIRIT, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; To win the spiritual battle we need the right Armor of Protection! Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: FOR HE [Jesus Christ] HATH SAID, I WILL NEVER LEAVE THEE, NOR FORSAKE THEE. Yes, to be strong in our Almighty God we have to have faith! Hebrews 11:1 NOW FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR, THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN. FAITH IS TRUSTING, BELIEVING, TAKING ALMIGHTY GOD, JESUS CHRIST, AT HIS WORD. NOTHING ADDED, NOTHING TAKEN AWAY. PLUS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE AND NO OTHER WAY. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him [our Almighty God]: for he that cometh to God must believe [have faith] that He [Jesus Christ] is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Ephesians 2:8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: Ephesians 1:7 IN WHOM [Jesus Christ] WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD, THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS [which gives us salvation], ACCORDING TO THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE; Romans 10:14 How then shall they call on Him [Jesus Christ] in Whom they HAVE NOT BELIEVED [trusted, have faith]? and how shall they BELIEVE IN HIM of Whom they have not heard?..... For to triumph and withstand the attacks from Satan can only be done through the power of our Almighty God! But to have the power of our Almighty God we have to have faith in Jesus Christ for our salvation [the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of all sins which gives us salvation, redemption]. Our strength! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth [trust, have faith] in Him [Jesus Christ] should not perish, but have everlasting life. Romans 8:39 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. Ephesians 2:8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: 2 Corinthians 5:15 And that He [Jesus Christ] died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them, and rose again. 16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we Him no more. 17 THEREFORE IF ANY MAN BE IN CHIRST, HE IS A NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW. Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith [trust, believe] in Christ Jesus. Yes, Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. Satan attacks our thoughts, when we least expect it. It might be a thought of someone who hurt us or something else. All Satan has to do is to plant the thought in our minds to start the spiritual battle. Yes, it is a very difficult battle because it is a battle within our minds and hearts. When we do not have faith in our Almighty Gods Word we have defeat! Romans 10:9 That IF thou shalt confess [a choice] with thy mouth the Lord Jesus [confessing Jesus Christ Lord having power and authority over us, Gods will, therefore our Lord], and shalt believe [trust, have faith] in thine heart that God [God The Father and God The Holy Spirit] hath raised Him [Jesus Christ, God The Son] from the dead [The Gospel of Grace: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for THE FORGIVENESS OF ALL SINS, past, present, future], THOU SHALT BE SAVED [Salvation from Hell, The Tribulation, and The Lake of Fire for eternity]. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him [our Almighty God]: for he that cometh to God must believe [have faith] that He [Jesus Christ] is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Ephesians 2:8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:32-39 Amplified Bible He who did not withhold or spare [even] His own Son but gave Him up for us all, will He not also with Him freely and graciously give us all [other] things? 33 Who shall bring any charge against Gods elect [when it is] God Who justifies [that is, Who puts us in right relation to Himself? Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach those whom God has chosen? Will God, Who acquits us?] 34 Who is there to condemn [us]? Will Christ Jesus (the Messiah), Who died, or rather Who was raised from the dead, Who is at the right hand of God actually pleading as He intercedes for us? 35 Who shall ever separate us from Christs love? Shall suffering and affliction and tribulation? Or calamity and distress? Or persecution or hunger or destitution or peril or sword? 36 Even as it is written, For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long; we are regarded and counted as sheep for the slaughter. [Ps. 44:22.] 37 Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, 39 Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. A CHOICE THAT ONLY YOU CAN MAKE AND NO ONE ELSE! Think about it!
