Spiritual Army

Say not "peace" in time of war. We are not in a time of peace and prosperity. It seems like it came to our nation in a flash but it has been brewing for many years. I was going down the wrong road by giving into anger against people who want to take down this country and its values. Every day I began with a blank slate and then as the news of each day's events begin to stab at my heart I became tense and enraged. I looked for common sense but it was hard to find. It took me the whole day to move into prayer for those that are operating in darkness. I finally would fall asleep after much mental turmoil and then the next morning the whole thing would begin again. I wrestled with arming myself with weapons, confronting the opposition through posts and comments on social media, and hitting the streets with a sign. What would my sign say? Something like "you can't change the past" or "responsibility vs. blame." How about "believers lives matter."  Oops that isn't on trend.  I reached my peak of outrage and I knew I had to find a way to continue with my life as a soldier of Christ. Now, I wake up each morning and I say a prayer for people who are lost, empty, and following the master of deceit. Then I put on my spiritual armor which allows the news items to bounce off me.  I take up my sword which is speaking the Word of the Lord. It is always the same, the children of the light against the children of the darkness. I will not waste my time thinking about the people who anger me through their words and actions. I will only battle against the principalities of darkness and not the flesh.  I need to know who is the enemy. If I look to man to defeat, I will have to battle every minute of every day and I will become exhausted. I will lose the war. If I chose to tune out the events of the day, I will be a victim of retreat. I don't want to sit and pray all day either. I need to go about my life, be active, do good to my neighbor, and pray with all my heart against the prince of darkness. I am grateful  to be a child of Christ and I will be unafraid to stand up for what I believe.  I accept my assignment, my destiny. The spiritual army is forming and we are ready for battle. God protect us.
