Ephesians 6:16 (KJV)
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
Disciples of Jesus Christ are given a protective defense shield from God to hinder Satan’s incoming warheads (scripture refers to them as “fiery darts”). The Bible calls this protective shield, “Our shield of faith.” God gives us this weapon … but we must learn how to use it as affectively as possible to receive maximized benefit from it.
Some believers may only be yielding a defense shield equivalent to the size of a penny, though they may not realize it. More seasoned warriors may have grown in maturity and wisdom to where they are completely surrounded by this defense shield … most of the time. How big one’s faith shield is at any given moment of time may not be as important as understanding the importance of having a faith shield in the first place. Look God is saying, get behind me and use me as a shield, there is safety, assurance and protection. Why would you not want that.
Remember Jeremiah 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Have A Blessed day
