The Battle Call

Today we went to battle. We go to battle everyday, but today we went to the front lines. We stood eye to eye with the enemy himself. Their drums played loudly, we said scripture even louder. We fought a good fight. The Lord is victorious.

Before we even left Father helped us put on His armor. And now as we sit here in fellowship, never have I felt such comfort from the Lord. I can feel Him healing my wounds, repairing the damaged armor, and romancing me. He is tender and gentle. I feel so weak yet strong at the same time. I feel beat up from today's battle, but firm in Him and still standing...just like He said I would.

The word says in Ephesians 6:10-20 that if we put on the armor of God, He will allow us to still be standing firm and that is exactly what He's done for me. He didn't say we wouldn't be beat up, but that we would still be standing firm. I stand before Him, tired and beat up, but firm and steadfast in His promise and His grace.
