Ephesians 6:12 Scripture Meditation by Stephen Taylor

Ephesians 6:12

Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 

 

Happy Fourth of July! I want to say thank you to all past, present, and future Americans who have given of themselves for our freedom!! I was thinking about how these patriots protect us from unseen enemies and how our God does the same thing!! There are terrorist threats thwarted everyday both here on earth and in the spiritual world, and I don’t think we give enough credit to either!! So often, God protects me from things that I can’t see, or, even if I could see them, would I believe them??

 


God doesn’t tell us “no” or “stop” out of malice or to keep us from happiness. Rather, He tells us, “No, because you don’t see the pain that is going to cause you in the future” or, “Stop, because this is going to harden your heart!”

 

God has protected me numerous times, not only from the evils of this world but also from myself!! Thank You, Lord, for your patience, love, foresight, and compassion. For being a great Father who isn’t afraid to tell me no if it’s for my own good.

 

So, today, I want to say thank you to the patriots who have secured this country’s freedom and to my ultimate freedom fighter, Jesus Christ, who has secured my eternal freedom in Him!!!!

 

I love you all, God bless, and glory to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit!!!
