Message Series: Shields Up
God commands us to be prepared for battle. Like American Express, don’t leave your home without it. You are going to encounter a situation during your day that is going to feel hopeless and beyond your capacity to deal with. That’s when you need to give yourself a little pep talk and pull out of your holster a piece of battle armor. Someone or something is bound to test your patience. Your kids are going to spill red fruit juice all over the carpet, and you will be compelled to yell at them, but you will need to pull out the armor of peace and probably the armor of faith, praying that this spill won’t permanently stain your carpet. You need to be prepared for whatever the enemy throws your way. We know we have the victory when our shields are up and our armor is on, but do we realize we have it! The key is knowing who we are in Christ.
