¹¹ Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. (Ephesians 6:11 ESV)

In our work a day world we can forget that we have an enemy who is constantly scheming to undermine our relationship with God. To minimize our Christian impact upon the world and to lead us astray.

It is like we are dealing with a master spy who is working to overthrow the world. We, unfortunately, are ill equipped to deal with his manipulation, deceptions and the host of demons who work toward his foul plans. We know he loses in the end, but we need to stand against him until then. And we cannot do this alone. Outside of Jesus name, we have little to no power against the powers and principalities of this world.
