Vital signs- Sunday, February 4th, 2024


”“I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.“

‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭12‬ ‭NLT‬‬


As mentioned yesterday, being a Christ follower drafts you into the war.

Really the only way to avoid spiritual warfare is to stay off the enemy’s radar. If you don’t want to have to fight, don’t give the enemy a reason to attack you. He may not like you, but that doesn’t mean he would have reason to put effort into you. There are several countries that don’t like other countries, countries that believe things contrary to what others believe; but they don’t attack them, until they do something to provoke them.

If we don’t provoke the enemy, he will leave us alone. Even if we claim to follow Christ, his attacks will most likely be minimal. Just enough to get us to stay in the barracks. After that, he doesn’t have to worry about us. If you want to avoid spiritual warfare, stay away from the Bible, stay off your knees, stay off the enemy’s radar, and you’ll be just fine.

Of course, the Bible calls us to war. Jesus told us to go out and do all the things He did and more so. If we are truly following Christ, we should be dead center in the middle of the radar screen. The enemy should know our name and see our commanding officer is Christ. Our name should be on his hit list. And while that may sound scary, we must remember we have already been guaranteed victory. 1Corinthians 15:57 tells us, “But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Your Gods warrior- Don’t forget it!


Team Wade loves you, is praying for you and there’s nothing you can do about it ❤️👊
