11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. ~ Ephesians 6:11-13
We are facing a war for independence right now. A spiritual war of independence, but a war, nonetheless. Every one of us are all flawed with what theologians call, “original sin.” This was the purpose of Jesus coming to earth and being born of a virgin, so that He could die for the sins of the world.
Jesus died to wash us clean of that original sin, and He offers eternal life to whomsoever will. He is offering liberty right now. Your rights as a citizen may be taken from you. Your freedom can be eliminated. Your property can be confiscated. But do you know what they can never take from you? Your freedom in Christ. Jesus died on the cross over 2,000 years ago because we were all sinners and needed saving, and His shed blood was the only way for us to receive salvation.
So, Jesus had to die that we might live. Therefore, cling to your salvation. Cling to what they can never take from you. Jesus promised that if we seek first the Kingdom of God all other things will be given to us. Therefore, seek the LORD first and His righteousness, and He will take care of all your needs.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Pay Attention To The War.
