Our Field of Battle
The Lord your God is He who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
~ Deuteronomy 20:4
"Our only enemies are the enemies of God. Our fights are not against men, but against spiritual wickedness. We war with the devil and the blasphemy and despair that he brings into the field of battle, as well as with the armies of sin. With these we contend earnestly with spiritual weapons.
God abhors evil and, therefore, He goes with us to fight for us in this crusade. He will save us, and He will give us grace to win the victory. Depend upon it that if we are on God's side, God is on our side. With such an ally the outcome is never doubtful. Might lies with the Father who is Almighty, with Jesus who has all power in heaven and in earth, and with the Holy Spirit who works His will among men.
Soldiers of Christ, put on your armor. Let not this day pass without striking a blow for Jesus."
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
We thank You Lord, for giving us Your continuious love and grace that You fight along side of us. Thank You for not allowing us to go alone to fight in this battle, because this battle is not just ours, it is Your's too. Thank You for keeping us safe under Your wings all this time. Thank You for getting us ready for this big fight that we are up against. This we pray in Christ Jesus' precious Name, Amen.
