HOPE

 Ephesians 6:12. Is a gateway for the knowledge of the weapons of warfare which are not physical, but spiritual and have divine power to destroy strongholds. In simplicity, if we understood that the physical afflictions we endure should not be a negative focus, but know that it is spiritual and that there is only one who has the divine power to fight all our battles. For it is written: The battle does not belong to us, but it belongs to the Lord. 2 Corinthians 20:15. 

For there are six weapons written for us to use: the Belt of  Truth, Breastplate of Righteousness, Shoes of Peace, Shield of Faith, Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit. (God's Word) Ephesians 6.

In my testimony and walk of faith, I would like to elaborate on the Word of God, which is use to defend against spiritual attacks, having unwavering trust in God, hoping for something you can't see, but must believe that it is so. Prayer is an important and constant weapon to see you through. Therefore, setting yourself up for the preparation of the process that you must go through to face each battle day by day. But knowing that God is in the midst of it, even though you can't see Him. And sometimes you won't hear Him, but you must continue to believe in Him, even in your weakest and darkest moments. Have Faith!

God will do the fighting for you, there is always a giant that stands behind the scenes during any of your trials, sickness, mental and emotional afflictions. Just as the giant was waiting for David after watching the Israelites experience. Summoning them and daring them to speak, believe, or move forward. But this is not the time to fold, it is the time to hold on to God's unchanging hand. And believing as it is written: The battle is not yours because it's not a fight, it's the technique, the process to stay truthful and faithful to God and God will fight all your battles for you, just as He did for David when He realized he had to see Goliath as a molehill and not a mountain. David knew he couldn't fight with the worldly armor, but with something so simplified and so underestimated as a weapon, a rock and a slingshot, and his faith in God. We have been given a more powerful weapon of war, which is His Word and our faith in His Word. 

So in closing this intro: Stay strong and keep the faith and know that we have been given power and it is in our tongue. And scripture says; in (Proverbs 18:21) That our words have power and whatever we speak can bring life and death, in our lives and the lives of others. And we have been given the power also to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.
(Luke 10:19)

So the same God that rescued David from the paw of the lion, and the paw of the bear will rescue us from the hand of the giant when we use Our Weapons of  War! 

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the One who is in you, is Greater than the One who is in the world!
(1 John 4)
