Not flesh and blood but spiritual wickedness

Ephesians 6:10-20

  10Be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.

 ¹¹ Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

 ¹² For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

 ¹³ Wherefore take up the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.

 ¹⁴ Stand 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 withal taking up the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts 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 supplication praying at all seasons in the Spirit, and watching thereunto in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints,

 ¹⁹ And on my behalf, that utterance may be given unto me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel,

 ²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Prayer 1.1 Forgive us

Dear Heavenly Father, forgive us our foolishness, forgive us our trespasses, forgive us our unfaithfulness and our unbelief. Lead us in the way of righteousness, give us your daily bread to eat that we may not hunger; give us your water of life to drink, that we may not thirst. Oh, God, our Father, your grace abounds all grace and your love was not deserved, but through your Son, and in your Son we have gained eternal life, and by His sacrifice we have been restored to mercy and not wrath. Lord God, open our eyes that we may see. Open our ears that we may hear what your Spirit speaks to us, for the earth is dark and in the valley of the shadow of death we walk, but you have given us light through your Son that we may see and He may lead us in the way of righteousness and truth. In His name we have salvation and through him we are more than conquerors. I shall not fear, I shall not faint, I will run and not grow weary, I will stand though around me they shall fall. Blessed be your name forever and ever, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Spoken Word: 1.2 Flesh, our death sentence

This flesh is our death sentence... and we can only have life, in the Spirit that is given, through rebirth and repentance... So thank GOD we are not flesh only, but can have life in Him (the Son of God). But without Him we are like a star wondering too close to a black hole, but in Him we are like a flame from burning matter, anti-gravitational, upward, life bound, not down but up the ladder. If you think you got life figured out, then think again, the seen is only seen because of the unseen hand. In Him and through Him do all things remain, without Him is nothing, not even death will prevail. We ought to be temples filled and sustained, I rather know nothing than think I am wise; A plant deeply rooted waiting for the rain, is better than a tree with big branches, not even rooted, no fruits and no gain. A strong wind is coming to gather and bundle the tares, for the Day of the Lord is the Life or the fire prepared...
