Wrestling Against Evil

Scripture Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Observation: Today there is evil all around and you can tell there is a force controlling it. The people we hate because of this evil are not the ones in control, but they are being controlled by Satan. We can’t overcome this evil on our own it will take an act of God to conquer what is happening. I pray each day that God will take His children home and out of this hell on earth, and it will happen according to His will and timing.

Application: My job is to do the will of the Father each day. I need the Holy Spirit to guide me and watch over me. I get to involved in what is happening in this world and lose my focus on my Lord. I need to stay focused on what I’m called to do and trust God that He will do the rest.

Prayer Dear Lord I need peace in my heart. There is so much going on around me that I get trapped in the news. Help me stay focused on You and your desires for me. Use me as a peacemaker in this world to glorify you.
