Bible Reading this Morning 📖

Romans chapter(s) 12 & 13

In a world that's been turned upside down, we can turn to Jesus, who never changes. God's word never returns void and goes forth to accomplish what He intends. We can receive direction, insight, wisdom, and hope through scripture, so we can obtain the tools necessary to achieve peace and stability. God's word (Bible) is a guide into understanding who God is and what He says about it. It's so refreshing to know that God has not left us without instruction and a way to have relationship with Him. 

Ephesians 6:11-18 New International Version (NIV)

11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 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. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
