Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus – THE Risen Saviour! – grace and peace to you! Another ‘strange day’ in the kingdom – damp, dreary, cold, and …designed by God for our pleasure – I wonder what He is up to today? Nonetheless, I will be praying for you, asking Father to be the “Lifter of your head!” and the “Rock of your salvation!” …right now, even as you are reading this!
As I was reading some devotional material this morning I was re-reminded of the necessity of spiritual armour because our enemy doesn’t use conventional weapons. Our enemy, it seems, has been sharpening his sword and slashing at the followers of the Christ with: fear – uncertainty – distraction – insecurity – comparison. They are manifest in so many subtle ways and Jesus reminded His disciples then, and now, to “watch and pray” lest we fall on the battlefield.
Have a great day – “Turn your eyes on Jesus!”
