Shield Yourself

Ok warriors I hope everyone is enjoying theire time as summer is winding down and school is about to kick up again!

We are still in the break down of Ephesians 6. This week we are on the shield of faith. I remember once God gave me a revelation on the shield of faith, he once told me " a warrior who does not beilieve in his shield to save him from danger is as good as dead"! You see friends, thats just what faith is, it is belief.

The Bible declares faith as the "confident assurance of things hoped for will come to pass, it is the evidence of things not yet seen." So in simpler terms faith is what you need to have something you are trusting God to do something in your life.

Or faith may not be visible to us in the physical realm, it is a very visible in the spiritual! The word says that, without faith it is impossible to please him (God). Faith also means trust and in 1 John 5:4 the word Declares " by trusting in Jesus to give us the vistory is how we DEFEAT this evil world." And the enemy knows this.

I heard Bishop T.D. Jakes say that " the Devil isnt after your worldly possesions, he is after your faith." And he has scouted you out and knows what you like and dont like, so if a certain area of your life is under attack really hard, that its the Devil seeing if he can shake the faith you have, but if you are deeply rooted in God and your faith is in him alone, than you can not torn down!

Finally the word says in 1 Peter 1:7-9 "your faith is FAR more precious to God than Gold can ever be!" So friends i hope you take this and pray over it and seek Gods face and study this subject for yourselves and get better revelation than i and if you do on any of these subjects, please by all means leave a comment so we can discuss.
