Challenge Answers, Give Away and Inspirational Words

Good Evening to All!

First let me say thank you to all that entered my Give-Away! I realize that it was a quick one, but patience has never been one of my virtues, and I was excited about it. Anyway, I should be having another one pretty soon, and it will go on for at least a week.

Now I would like to Congratulate Valerie, at Sew Not My Day as the winner of the Devotional Book by Bob Perks.

I hope you like it.

Daily Inspiration from the NIV

Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Ephesians 6:11-13

This has got to be one of my favorite verses in the Bible. I have recited this so many times. It reminds me that I am not alone fighting the battles that intrude in my life. It helps me not only to feel more equipped to handle what may come, but also that actually, these are not my battles at all. They are the LORD's . If I let Him, He will fight my battles for me. Just like He fought Joshua's battle, David's battle, along with many more. He did that back then, and He does it today, but ONLY IF WE ALLOW HIM. He gives us the tools to protect ourselves, such as His Word, Faith , Righteousness, and others but when it comes down to it Prayer and Fasting is the best weapon, because when we are at our weakest that is when we are strongest because we let go of our pride and ask God for His help in any dilemma or problem which may come up.

Good Night and May God Bless!
