Title: Who’s the enemy?
For 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. – Ephesians 6:12
Do you ever struggle? Does it feel endless? Do you sometimes have something going on that has no explanation or reason? Guess what, guys? It’s because our struggle is NOT against the guy who cut you off in traffic or the guy who is suing your company… It’s against our enemy, who is only trying to seek and destroy.
Isn’t that a refreshing thought? There are people in our lives every day who we struggle to love, but Jesus says to love them anyway. When we realize that our struggle is not against them but against the enemy of God, we can engage our efforts in battling him and LOVE the people who are hard to love. Can you refocus your efforts today?
Real men Engage in battle with the right enemy.
