Listen, Christian! The spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places wage war against you. Are you waging war against them? If not, what are you doing? What is your life as a Christian? Get ready! Put on your armor! And fight!

Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God… (Ephesians 6.14–17). 

Do not fear, nor have a defeatist heart. Stand! Take the truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, and do what the Lord of heaven commands you to do.
