How to be strong

When someone is weak and feeble and give in after little pressure, we call them fish puddings in Norway. I don't want to be a spiritual fish pudding (some times i feel like one). Then it is important to go to God's Gym! Ephesians 6 says: Be strong with the Lord's mighty power. Put on God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies and tricks from the devil.

I did that today. In prayer I put on the belt of truth, the body armor of God's righteousness, the peace of being prepared to share the gospel as shoes, shield of faith (oh how important that shield is!), salvation as helmet and the sword, which is God's word. And now i know I am a bit stronger.

Tomorrow I will put the armor on again. The dark powers don't stand a chance!

Er d'ikke rart? Gud har alltid det vi trenger for å stå oppreist og sterke i einhver situasjon. Og han gir det til oss når vi trenger det. For ein god Gud!
