Ephesians 6:12
“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.”
Behind any kind of confrontation our struggle seems to be, against flesh and blood. After all, there are physical flesh and blood human beings who take a stand against us. But there is more. Behind the anger of the moment we are also encountering the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Life is much more scary than one may think. There are spiritual forces of wickedness - rulers, powers and forces of darkness that are bent on your destruction and mine.
You and I need protection - more accurately, a protector.
The Truth
“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.” (Ephesians 6:13)
