"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
Life can definitely be a battle. All kinds of things come against us. There are periods of time when it seems like it's a daily struggle to stay afloat. In frustration and anger, we may want to strike back at the people that it appears to be coming from. But, there is a better way.
We cannot overcome anything or anyone without the help of God. In order to do battle, we must put on the armor that God provides us with remembering that it is not flesh and blood that we battle with but spiritual forces in the dark realms who wish to undo you.
The battle is real and we must engage or succumb to the enemy.
"Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints..."
God's Peace - Pr. J
