I didn’t Google it but I’m pretty sure at one time there was a saying about evil winds . It felt like there was an evil wind blowing this week. A wind of hate and division and ungodliness. I noticed a lot of people seemed off-kilter . We had crazy weather, too. It was in the upper 70s. On Wednesday and today it’s in the 30s. Also President Trump gave an important State of the Union Address that was strongly opposed by the Democrats.
I don’t delve into the study of spirits and demons because the Bible says not to , but I do know that there are spiritual forces in high places that are battling , because the Bible says that, too. We are to resist the Devil, think about good things, and pray , using God’s own words to protect us .
Philippians 4:8, NIV: “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.”
I hope you made it through this week with no problems . Remember to pray because evil is real.
Ephesians 6:12, ESV: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”
Yes, the battle is real, and God’s Word is our weapon.
This week on Monday my daughter and I were doing some errands and shopping in town and we were commenting as well that people seemed very “off” everywhere we went. I was subsequently discussing with a friend the importance of putting on the armor of God. I’m always excited to remember the very end of those verses… to stand. We put on the armor and stand.
Good reminder!
Amen! So true and very important to remember. God bless!
Keep on looking up PK!
Evil will use whatever small chink it can find! Pray without ceasing (even if it’s just sitting there with God and not saying a thing)! God Bless!
