BEST PART:

I was reading in Ephesians the other day and found these scriptures in chapter 6. They say 

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

 Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  

 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 

 Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 

Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 

 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 

 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 

 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God"

WOW how powerful is that. If we continually try to put on the armor of God every day, we will be constantly protected. I know that to be true. This week we were in the house of one of our friends and she was telling us about how there's evil spirits in her house and when she told us a story about it, I legitimately felt an evilness come over me. I talked about it with my comp and she said the exact same thing.

Point is, that when we are protected with the powers of the Spirit, we can feel it when it leaves us. When we aren't protected by the shield of faith, we are more prone to the fiery darts of the adversary. I know this message wasn't christmasy, I promise one for next week but I just wanted to share these verse! Protect yourselves with the shield of faith and the spirit constantly because I promise you will see blessings.

Les amo mucho have an amazing week!
