When You’ve Done ALL You Can Do, STAND! 6-6-25

In my summation of the miniseries of messages pertaining to various types of adultery and idol worship, this is to encourage those who have taken heed. Hopefully, someone who has not had a change of heart will eventually be convinced by the Holy Spirit that pledging allegiance to or allowing anything to have preeminence over the Lord God Almighty.

Please remember the devil is mad because you as a born again believer are no longer in bondage to his lies. Therefore, he will attack you in various ways; it could be attacks on your body, or he’s uses people to say evil things against you (Matthew 6:10-12).

No  weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me,” (Isaiah 54:17). The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? (Psalm 27).

When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him (Isaiah 59:19b). In other words, when you are overwhelmed with one situation after another, the Lord intervenes. Therefore, the enemy has limitations just as it was with Job. Whatever we go through is for God’s purpose; His glory, and for us to be strengthened in our walk with Christ.

The phrase "Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth..." appears in Ephesians 6:14 NKJV. This verse is part of Paul's discussion of the "armor of God" in Ephesians 6, encouraging believers to take a firm stand against spiritual wickedness. 

The phrase "girded your waist with truth" signifies being prepared and ready for battle by having truth as a foundation. It's about having a firm grasp of biblical truth and doctrine, which acts as a belt or girdle to support and fortify the believer. 

The complete verse (Ephesians 6:14-15 NKJV) reads: "Stand” therefore, having girded your waist with truth [prepare yourself for action; a good soldier does not let his guard down], having put on the breastplate of righteousness [protection and defense against spiritual attacks], and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.

[AI-  to be ready and prepared to proclaim the good news of the gospel and to stand firm in the face of adversity]

Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one." [Being rooted and grounded in the Word of God to be able to ward off various attacks of the enemy].

I am interceding and standing in the gap for you, and so many others who know the truth are praying as well.
