Ephesians 6:10-11–"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil."
The enemy of souls, Satan, is prowling. He desires to devour the souls of men and women, to drive us away from the Truth, and reckon us separated from God for all eternity. This is no fictional horror-film story; this is the reality of life. We should never take spiritual warfare lightly nor should we ever neglect that Satan is scheming against us, crafting clever snares to pull us away from Christ. This is why it is so vital that we are strong in the Lord and wear His armor for our protection. The next several verses in Ephesians define the armor of God but, for now, all that needs to be said is seek after God and rest in His strength, His might, His wisdom, and His guidance. In this way, we will remain aware of the schemes of the devil and we will have the power, who is the Holy Spirit, to protect us.
