You present a challenge to Satan’s plan. You carry something of God within you, something noble and holy, something the world needs – wisdom, kindness, mercy, skill. If Satan can neutralize you, he can mute your influence.– Max LucadoThe Call of ChristThe call requires focusThe call requires forward motionThe call requires being faith drivenThe call requires faithfulnessFinally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 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 A Call to Be StrongOur strength is commandedOur strength flows from ChristOur strength comes from connectionA Call to StandStanding flows from readinessStanding is a requirementStanding results in a strategyA Call to StruggleWe struggle against dominionsWe struggle against darknessWe struggle against dominationHow does Satan fight us?DivisionDelayDistractionDiscouragementDistortionDistanceA Call to be SteadfastBeing steadfast means that we do not moveBeing steadfast means that we are motivatedBeing steadfast means that we are mobilizedBeing steadfast means we stay on missionHow do we respond?Answer the callAccept the assignmentActively participateAggressively move
