The Christian life is not an easy won. We have to do battle on all fronts. We contend against the world, our own flesh and the craftiness of Satan. The apostle Paul in writing in Ephesians 6 mentions how we must be prepared to do battle with the crafty desires of the evil one.
Paul encourages us to put on the whole armor of God and be prepared to fight such evil forces. The apostle makes clear that it is not against flesh and blood that we are contending, but against those invisible forces! Then, Paul concludes this section with these words: "Pray in the Spirit at all times in every prayer and supplication." (Eph. 6:18)
The question I pose is: If we are engaged in such battle, are we more defensive or on the offense? How is it in your life? I believe if we want to see ourselves on the offensive, maybe we need to pray even more.
