A Battle

“God is strong, and he wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will be able to stand up to everything the Devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we'll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life or death fight to the finish against the devil and all his angels.” Ephesians 6:10-12 (The Message)

When we set out to do what we think God wants us to do we must remember that we are engaging in a battle. Satan will do whatever He can to deter us, discourage us and even defeat us. He will throw all kinds of things at us. Let's remember that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

Pray for the team in this coming week with their final preparations for the trip, in their homes and in their workplaces.
