Several mothers in the Bible give us the picture of the motherly comfort of God. A barren woman named Hannah prayed to God for a child, and her prayers actually changed the future of the children of Israel. Mary, the mother of Jesus, trusted God in the unknown, in what she could not see, foreknow, or foretell about her son. These parents are an inspiration to every person, regardless of gender. They teach us how to face all things with God's help in prayer. They also give us a beautiful picture of godly parenting at work. VF-2549

After the devastating Los Angeles fires, we must be even more vigilant to protect our calling. That starts with being aware of the devil's methods with us. They are subtle, and designed to fill us with fear, doubt, and everything that is the antithesis of faith. The only hope we have is to put on the whole armor of God and be ready for the enemy from head to toe. If we focus on building our community of believers back up to be strong in the Lord through the Spirit of God, there will be an actual revolution in the state of California. VF-2480 Ephesians 6

There is a battle for your soul, and it is dangerous to fail to understand the enemy is always there. A target is on your back when you open your mouth and make a commitment. When our committedness or our attitude towards our commitment changes, we open up the door for the devil to pick us off. We must treat Christ as our fort, our place of resistance, and recognize that putting on the full armor of God means putting on Christ, who fortifies us from the inside. When we mess up, we need to get up again and learn from the last time. VF-2245 Ephesians 6:10-17

Like a skilled hunter, satan observes and considers us to make his most powerful attacks, to hinder us, to tempt us, and to take us as prey. But God has His hand on us. There is no reason why we should be under this kind of attack unless we have a part in God's kingdom. There is a battle for us, and we need to take spiritual inventory so we can see where the battle is. We cannot fight the devil in the flesh, but in unity with Christ. The battle is the Lord's.

As Christians, we face spiritual warfare. We must put on the whole armor of God and be strong in the Lord, because our own strength is not enough to fight the devil. We are not immune from temptation, and we all struggle with problems we cannot seem to put behind us. We must yield ourselves to God and recognize He is the Master of our soul. He wants us to face the battle, and He equips us to fight the enemy. Ephesians 6 VF-2548
