spiritual warfare...

how important it is for us to guard, at all times, our minds and our hearts. our minds because that's where the devil attacks first; our minds cos its such a crucial battleground.

learnt from cousin today that both jinying and weiping have had a sense of something, they dont know what, but just something... which may have the power to stop the work we wanna do in yunnan. seen in this light, the lesson on the armour of God we learnt in cell some time back becomes all the more relevant.

"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." Ephesians 6:12

just wanna highlight one particular piece of the 6 pieces of armour (belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God). can u guess which piece of armour i'm gonna highlight? haha.

"In addtion to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish al the flaming arrows of the evil one." Ephesians 6:16

so yups... faith. a small word with a big meaning. about 3 weeks more to the yunnan mission trip... i really got to prepare myself spiritually!

today's pentecostal message was quite cool too. are you merely filled with the Holy Spirit, or are you full of the Holy Spirit?
