Recognizing Spiritual Attacks and Standing Firm

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room—spiritual warfare. You’ve surrendered your life to God, and that makes you a prime target for the enemy. The moment you decided to fully commit to God’s will, the enemy took notice. And trust me, he’ll use people, situations, and even your own doubts to try and derail you.

You might notice that as soon as you make a bold move for God, suddenly, things start going wrong. People who were once close to you start acting funny, situations arise that test your faith, and you might even question if you’re on the right path. But don’t get it twisted—this isn’t just coincidence. The enemy sees the potential and power in your surrender, and he’s trying to throw you off track.

But here’s the good news—you’re not fighting alone. God has given you everything you need to stand firm. The full armor of God isn’t just spiritual talk; it’s your daily survival kit. From the belt of truth to the sword of the Spirit, every piece is designed to help you withstand the enemy’s schemes.

Study Ephesians 6:10-18 in depth. Break down each piece of the armor of God and reflect on how it applies to your life and ministry. Take time to journal about any recent attacks or challenges you’ve faced and how you can use God’s armor to stand strong. Pray for strength, protection, and discernment as you continue to walk in your calling, knowing that God is with you every step of the way.
