He that hath no
rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without
walls." Proverbs 26:28
I have recently started watching an original show on the history channel called
Vikings. The Vikings are pagan people who prey on the innocent and they
rob, steal and kill. One episode the Vikings were inspiring to
attack and conquer Paris. The main and only obstacle for the
Vikings was to penetrate the walls that surrounded the city. They
realized that if their raid was to be a success, it must penetrate the
wall around the city to take the spoils and riches that belonged to the
King and people of France.
Whatever area in your life that is”
without control” whether it is a habit, your tongue, or attitude; it is leaving you
vulnerable. The enemy is planning and calculating an attack. He
(satan) wants to take all that you have and leave you with nothing.
So the question today is, “How is your House (spiritual)? “ “ Can you
survive an attack? “ “Are you prepared to do battle with the pagans? “(the
devil) .
Take the time today to evaluate your
defense. What is your defense? Are you using the sword of the
spirit which is the Word of God or cussing people out? Do you have
on the breastplate of righteousness or you see yourself through the eyes of
your past habit or addiction? Are your feet shod with the
preparation of the gospel or your quoting rap songs? Do
you have the shield of faith or are you speaking what you see? Are you praying
with supplication or are you praying in doubt and fear? Eph. 6:14
The enemy will attack! How
will you fight? The scripture states, he that hath no rule over his own
spirit is like a city broken down without walls. Subject to attack!
Take this time to get ready and build your defense in God. You might lose
some battles but You will be victorious and win the war. Let’s continue
to work on those areas we know we need to improve .
