Spiritual Warfare: Defending Against the Attack

Spiritual Warfare: Defending Against the Attack

As all of us likely are aware, the meteorologists are forecasting additional flooding in the Sioux Falls area through next week due to the excessive snowpack to our north and dramatically warmer temperatures. The language they are using is not “if it floods”, but “when it floods.” This is the same idea we need to apply to the topic of spiritual warfare, in that for the Christian it is not a matter of “if” it will happen, but “when” it will happen. And of course, as this spiritual warfare indeed occurs, it behooves all of us to be ready and stand firm. Our text of Ephesians 6:10-20 will detail to us how we are to “stand firm” and defend against the attack of the evil one.
