There's a war going on, and we might be taking the wrong approach. Take the Gloves OFF means it is not a fleshly war. The war in the heavenlies, the spiritual realm, manifests in the natural realm. By the time it hits you, know it was already taking place. Seeing through your spiritual eyes gives you the ability to measure the onslaughts of the enemy.
It's time to take your sword out its case and for others you have to move from shining your sword to wielding your sword. I'm referring to the Sword of the Spirit. The Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. If you're reading, start studying. If you're studying, start applying. If you're applying, start believing. If you're believing, start standing. If you're standing, start receiving. If you're receiving, keep praising and worshiping. It may not feel like it, but the victory has already been won. Take the Gloves OFF!
You can be assured that, It is not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6) Apostle Paul gives us a word of advice that we must all adhere to in this day and time. Let's take heed!!! Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Wherefore take up the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; withal taking up the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: with all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons in the Spirit, and watching thereunto in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints. (Ephesians 6:10-18)

This really touched my spirit. This is such a powerful message. Im so glad to know that no matter what evil comes my way, I have a savior that has armed me with his word to stand on. Cant wait to see what you write next. Thank you for the confirmation that I needed.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the info on Wisdom Hunters. Im still up at 1:24am reading articles. Keep on working for God because you ARE making a difference. My daughter Kennedy loves you and talks about you all the time.
ReplyDeletePraise God! I am blessed to know the Spirit of the Lord has touched you through Take the Gloves Off!
ReplyDeleteIt's true Our Savior didn't leave us without the necessary tools needed in this spiritual walk. You have encouraged me as many others to keep writing. Thank you and you're welcome for the confirmation.
You are welcome! Wisdom is the principal thing. James 1:5, If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of god, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. I am so glad we are not limited in this area. God knew and knows we need wisdom to walk this walk. Smiling....I love Kennedy as well. She is a pleasure to have in class. Be blessed!
