Take up Your Shield

For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12

Faith is more than wishful thinking; it is confident trust in God’s character, promises, and power. When challenges arise, we can believe that God sees us, protects us, and is able to deliver us from harm. Even when we feel vulnerable, our faith in Him becomes a shield that guards our hearts and minds.

Today, whatever arrows may be coming your way, choose to lift your shield of faith. Trust that God is with you, fighting for you, and able to carry you safely through every battle.

Prayer for today: Heavenly Father, strengthen me in the areas where I am weak and remind me that Your power is greater than any attack I face. I trust You to protect me, guide me, and deliver me according to Your perfect will. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
