A battle rages daily across the heavens. Heaven's angels are pitted against the demons of Hell. At stake are the lives of all mankind. The battle is complicated by mankind's tendency to willingly walk into the line of fire. In fact one of the demon's favorite tactics is to lure the unsuspecting out of the shelter of the angels into the direct line of fire, and what's worse theyfrequently want to stay there. Sadly, if they stay there too long they fall out of reach of the angels.
Being a Christian doesn't protect you from this war, it equips you. Satan travels the Earth looking for targets and they are frequently those closest to God. Remember Job? He was completely devoted to God and this was who Satan chose to unleash the powers of Hell against.
Well Job's story is every man's story. A war rages over the soul of every one. It is vital that we prepare ourselves for this warfare. We prepare by being completely within Christ's will. Those who still stand after withstanding the attacks of the devil are the ones who will win this war. After losing all, Job still refused to deny God. He won. We will win too if, after having done all, we will just stand.
