Eph 6:12
“12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
“12Porque no tenemos lucha contra sangre y carne; sino contra principados, contra potestades, contra señores del mundo, gobernadores de estas tinieblas, contra malicias espirituales en los aires.”
The truth is that we are at war. The truth is that we are in the middle of a battle. Everyday we get out of bed there is a battle. Some of us may think, the battle continues when we get up, the truth is the battle is constant and the enemy does not rest until he accomplishes his work.
The enemy is at war for keeps, his goal is to rob, kill and destroy. This is not child’s play, this is not time to play church, this is not time to play with God. We must make a choice each day, how we will fight this battle.
I Sam 17:47
“47And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD’, and he will give you into our hands.”
“Y sabrá toda esta congregación que Jehová no salva con espada y lanza; porque de Jehová es la guerra, y él os entregará en nuestras manos.”
