Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
Ephesians 6:10-11
What if Paul had written, “Finally, be strong by yourself”, or “be strong in yourself and in your own strength”? What if he had said, “Put on the armor you make yourself, and try to stand against the schemes of the devil.”
If he’d said that, we’d all be doomed. Doomed to condemnation.
But we can thank our Lord that he didn’t say that. We don’t fight Satan alone. We fight in the strength that the Lord gives us every day.
Praise God!
