Battle Gear/The Sword


Take the helmet of salvation…Ephesians 6:17a

     Many of our battles take place in our own minds. The thoughts that go through my head can be damaging to myself and to others. Our minds can move us from our places of victory into a place of hopelessness and helplessness, right where Satan wants us.

     The greatest gift ever given is the Gospel of our salvation. No matter what life holds, we are going to heaven. Once we belong to Jesus, it is a done deal. We are seated in the heavenly realms, written in the Lamb’s book of life, set to live forever in our new glorious immortal bodies on a new heaven and a new earth!

     It is no wonder this reminder of our forever guards our minds. This helmet protects our heads from damage. There is nothing better than changing our perspective from our earthly worries to our eternal hope. Wear your helmet every single day. Consistently bring your thoughts back to heaven and to the powerful God who sits on the throne.

Since then you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:1-2

Father,

Set our minds on You every single day. You are seated in our true home, where we will live with You forever and ever. Our Spiritual helmets cannot be removed. We have been saved by grace. We have the Gospel of our salvation.

In Jesus name,

Amen
