God doesn’t mince words…and in His Word, because of His great, unfathomable love for us, He truthfully tells us that we’re all sinners…not one exception. Sin will always be the enemy…even for the believer in Jesus. We still can, and do, sin. However, God’s desire is that we say “No” to sin and “Yes” to Him…and, in His strength, we can…but to do that we must get serious about it and take the measures that He has provided for us to do battle and win the victory over sin. So, put His armor on. Prayerfully, put it on today and every day! This armor…

Ephesians 6:10-18

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14 Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, 15 and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; 16 in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints.

“One reason that sin flourishes is that it is treated like a cream puff instead of a rattlesnake.” ~ Billy Sunday

The Lord bless you and keep you…
