Ezekiel 28:12-13

When the enemy comes against us, what can we do? How did Jesus handle being tempted in the wilderness? This is part four of eight in the "Jesus, I Need You" series by Thistlebend Ministries, focusing on drawing closer to Jesus. The plans in this series can be done in any order. See also "Jesus, I Need You" (companion prayer).

We fight an ancient enemy who uses modern warfare to assault women affecting each of our lives on a daily basis. Because of Jesus, we’re more than conquerors and don’t have to live in fear of our enemy. God has created you to be a warrior with an irreplaceable role in the war, and you are needed out on the battlefield.

We are involved in an unseen battle, whether we believe it or not. We have a real enemy who hates us. We have an opponent committed to stealing from us, killing us, and destroying us. His language is fear, isolation, and accusation. His currency is condemnation. We must watch out for the devil’s schemes because Scripture says our struggle is not against flesh and blood.

In the beginning was the Word … but what came next? This plan is for anyone who wants a better understanding of the Bible.
