Battle Ground

Recently I've had my shield down. I've felt like I've been under attack by the enemy. At every corner its like I face a new obstacle. Last night I decided that I was done. Seriously over these frequent assaults. So I asked God for some relief and He sent me to Ephesians 6. When I opened my Bible it was like a hand came out from the pages and smacked me in the forehead. DUH! When I was in Grenada every single time Serena and I left the house we prayed the armor of God on us to protect us from the attacks of the enemy. But ever since I got back I haven't done that. Which is silly because I am still in the mission field here in Canada. Satan can still attack and he does it often! I realized that I need to suit up before leaving my room every morning.
"Father, today I put on the helmet of salvation, I grab my sword of the spirit, my shield of faith, my breastplate of salvation, my belt of truth. I cover my feet with the gospel of peace. Ready to enter into battle for You, Lord."
