Finally

SunsetEphesians 6: 10-12

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.   Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For 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.  (KJV)

Finally, after Paul had written his message to the Ephesians he gives them this last piece of advise.  Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Paul knew the power of the Lord’s might from his daily living in doing the will of God.  This strength came from the faith that Paul experience day  in and day out in the Lord.  Paul knew this faith came by trusting only in Christ, and not in his own abilities or of the abilities of these around him.  This is the same faith that we need to have as we walk daily with the Lord.

Paul after writing to the Ephesians on how to live to Christian life pointed them to the real enemy we face the devil.  In verse twelve he writes “For 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.”   This battle is real.  Satan’s goal is simply to create a Godless society, a society that does not recognizes God.  A society in which man is the supreme  beings.  So what place do you place God in your life?
