Why do you study your Bible, pray, go to church, learn things, listen to messages, take notes, fill your mind with good things, shun evil, cling to good things, and the countless other things we adapt over our lifetime?
Because the struggle is real as they say.
Being a United States Marine Corps veteran, I learned a great principle that applies to us as Christians. "What you do in peacetime prepares you for what you'll do in wartime."
Whatever we do in life, prepares us for how we'll react when under attack by the enemy.
Ephesians 6:12 NIV [12] 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.
All of this crappy dark realm seeks to destroy us. So all the things we do when we're not under attack, prepares us for when we are under attack.
Don't be freaked out by any of this as God helps us in all things and "we are more than conquerors through him who loves us."
I just bring that principle to your attention. If you have ever wondered, "what am I doing this for?"
Prepare in peacetime for when you're in wartime.
