He has tried, but I have tried to always have my spiritual armor on. Lynn has some excellent point for when you forget to get fully dressed in the morning.

In response to your mentioning of the armor. I think that it is vital for ALL believers to be equipped with the full armor of God because, without it, we will be like a city without a wall, hopeless to stop any attack. Good call on the armor of God.

One of the ways that I feel that Satan has focused on dismantling my faith is by keeping me focused on other things (school, homework, blogging) and focusing less on reading God’s Word.
One of the steps that I took to come back to God and read His Word was by scheduling what times I would be doing homework, blogging, etc.. and make sure I spend time studying in God’s Word.

I have seen the wedge that satan can try to put up, in the form of trying to convince that there is soo much going on that I need to fix everything right that moment. Its hard to wait and not see things get fixed right that moment. We have to remember as it says in Psalm 46:10,Be still, and know that I am God

Hey Julio, it’s nice to hear from you. I appreciate your comment. That is an excellent verse and teaches us that we must learn to wait on the Lord for guidance. I know someone will be blessed by the verse you gave.
