Ephesians 6:11

----- I wrote the above paragraph in the previous Lesson, forgot I did, and woke up viewing certain situations in my life as being too great for me to handle personally. Looks like I am in an excellent position to write about the spiritual attack! Again I ask you if you have ever been at a point where you were (are) overwhelmed? The thought of just making it through the day seems more than enough for you, and it appears as if you are on your own? One moment of slight diversion, please. Faith is a funny thing. We have a measure of Faith given at salvation, or more to the point, we receive salvation because we were given a measure of faith. Faith either increases or decreases. It does not remain at the same level. Like muscle tissue, if we use it, it increases, if not it decreases. This present darkness (Paul's words, not mine) in which we live brings constant testing of Faith. We can run, but we can't hide. And running is not good. Yesterday's verse said that after we have done all we can, we are to stand! So, you are in a rough time, or have been and will be . . . this is nothing more than a trial or test of Faith. That is, Faith in JESUS to Be and Do what HE says HE Is and Will Do! The enemy will spread his lies and tricks out before you. His attack can be quite convincing, especially if we have become used to seeing things from our natural perspective. So, we are warned to take on the Whole Armor of GOD, so that when these attacks come, we are able to Stand! The LORD'S purpose here is to have HIS final and eternal victory over the enemy walked out in your shoes! HIS people are a people meant to triumph! If you are HIS, remember that. HE never quits! And HE never fails. HE will bring you to the victory planned for you before the framing of the universe, if you will stand and have Faith in HIM!
