Stand and Pray

Finally Brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in His mighty power, put on the whole armor of God, and stand still.

It seems strange that we have all this armor, and yet Paul commands us to stand, and having done all, everything there is to do, to stand.

We want to use God's armor to challenge, and attack, and move out, but Paul commands us to stand. If this is true, then why do we desperately need the armor of God?

Satan wants to distract us, and destroy us so we are not able to focus in on the real spiritual battle, and that battle is fought with prayer. Because of his attacks we need all of this armor so that we are able to remain standing and fight for God's kingdom.

Are you fighting the wrong way, and thus falling into Satan's trap?

Stand your ground, and having done all, stand your ground so that you can fight.
