Are you in need of a fight song these days? The struggle is real, but it's not against who you might think. "Stand My Ground," a new song by Zach Williams, is a great anthem for your playlist, but it points to truths more meaningful than any lyric.

Let's learn how to stand our ground and observe a man in the Old Testament standing his ground.

Weekly Challenge

 Spend some time in Ephesians 6 learning about the armor of God with a focus on standing your ground against the enemy. Read this section of Scripture repetitively and interact with it in new ways. Then, consider reading about Daniel and his friends in the first few chapters of the book Daniel, focusing on how they stood their ground.
