Put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Ephesians 6:13
Whether you are aware of it or not, you are part of an ongoing and never-ending spiritual battle. Satan will always attack us where we are weak, and those areas are typically the ones we refuse to give over to God. Think of it as the weak part of the spiritual armor we are given by God as protection.
The enemy knows my areas of strength, but unfortunately he also knows where I am weak. For instance, like any married couple, Alicia and I have been struggling with issues concerning money the past few weeks/months. So, where do you suppose we have been attacked? You guessed it…my wallet. Sure, things have certainly gotten better, but being stubborn prolonged us from turning our situation over to God, fully and completely.
God promises to give us strength to overcome attacks from the enemy, but we must first ask God to cover our weaknesses with His mighty strength.
