Be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. (Ephesians 6:10–11)

When my daughter was five, she decided to play soccer with her older siblings and cousins at a family gathering. Very quickly in the game, she accidentally tripped and was trampled by the larger kids.

She ran off in tears, determined never again to enter the family fray. But once I scooped her up in my arms, hugged her to my chest, and reentered the game, she begged to play more.

She shrieked with laughter as we ran together. And with confidence in her security restored, she became our most zealous team member—held in my arms for the rest of the game.

Similarly, we gain strength and zeal for life’s spiritual battles when we know we are securely held in the Lord’s arms. Our strength is in His might.

Knowing we are secure in the grasp of the One who is Lord over all gives us the will to fight for Him, and even to reenter the fray after taking a fall, because we are in the embrace of great grace.

PRAYER: Lord, I know that life is full of spiritual battles. May the power of Your might enable me to stand firm and fight for You, knowing I’m secure in Your sovereign care.
