The Real Enemy


"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." ~ Ephesians 6:12

Often times in life, we get paranoid.

We think people are out to get us, set us up, and take us down.

In short, we think people are our enemies.

However, Ephesians 6 suggests otherwise.

It suggests that people are not our enemies, but are rather used by our real enemy to attack us, throw us off our game, and distract us from accomplishing that which God has called us to do.

So, as you go throughout your day and people start to stress you out, don't react with carnal weapons.

This is a spiritual war and God calls us to use our spiritual weapons -

God bless,
J.W.
