Our 24-hour prayer line receive calls from people all across America requesting prayer on how to fight against the spiritual warfare they are facing. Yes, Satan is alive and active in our world, but Jesus is much more alive and active! My friend, God has an encouraging word for you today.

Get Spiritually Dressed. Put your armor on!

Although our nation is under attack daily — be not shaken in heart or mind by anything that is going on in our world. Our citizenship is in heaven! We fight from Victory not for victory!

As Christians, the Word of God equips us on how to prepare and fight spiritual battles. The Apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6:12 that “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers, spiritual forces of evil in heavenly places.”

Likewise, the Bible reminds us that Satan is like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. My friend, he is after you and your family. If he can get a hold of you… your daughter, your son, your husband, your wife or grandchildren, he can and will wreak havoc. If he can infiltrate the church, the school, the White House, and Congress, he can infiltrate a nation. Yes, we are in a battle for the soul of America, and battling for the souls in America.

We are not left defenseless! God says; hold on a minute, I want to tell you what you can do about this. Put on the whole armor of God, get dressed properly!

“Stand firm then, with the belt of truth, buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all of this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” Ephesians 6:14-17
