The word for today is- Stand !

The word for today is- Stand !

 

Let's look at the first thing we must do, read  Ephesians 6:11,Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. All believers are to put on spiritual armour against the enemies of their souls. Spiritual strength and courage are needed for our spiritual warfare and suffering.We must resolve by God's grace, not to yield to Satan. If we give way, he will come in. We must stand on the word from God. Amen ! We must preserve in particular requests, notwithstanding discouragements. We must pray, not for ourselves only, but for all saints. The evil one(Satan) is mighty, and we are without strength, but our Redeemer is almighty, and in the power of his mighty we may overcome everything that comes our way.The word tells us to what? read Ephesians 6:13,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. Also,in James 4:7,Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. A person may have a large portion in things of this life, and yet be kept in the love of God; but he who sets his heart upon the world, who will conform to it rather than lose it, is an enemy to God.The spirit of the world teaches us to lay up or lay out for ourselves, according to our own fancies; God the Holy Spirit teaches us to be willing to do good for all mankind. Whose report do you believe? Look at Adam and Eve believed the report of the serpent (devil) when he said in Genesis 3:4,  “ye shall not surely die”. There is a song that goes “who’s report do you believe"?  We are to believe the report of the Lord”; but you look around the world today, and that doesn’t look to be true.  Some people will tell you that God makes you sick to teach you something. Not true ! The truth is you did something wrong. But the Bible says in Exodus 15:26,  “for I am the Lord that healeth thee." Read Psalms 107:20 says “He sent His word, and healed them and delivered them from their destructions”. Read Joshua 21:45, There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass. His word is true, His word change not, His word is forever....  .  Read John 1:1,In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.We are called believers, so let’s look at what believers are told to do, and act on it. In Jesus’ name we will cast out devils, we shall pray and lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. Jesus tells us in Mark 16:15-18 that we are to go into the world and  preach ( stand on His word) the gospel to every creature, and these signs shall follow them that believes. Thank you God for your word. Amen!
