Ephesians 6:10-18
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one;17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,

I let my guard down last night and the enemy creeped in and tried to intimidate, destroy and put me down.
However, my God is strong and He ALWAYS wins. Did you hear that? Always. So, when fear and intimidation gets the best of me, I must rely on my shield of faith and trust that God will take care of me and He is in control. I cannot be touched.
It's also a good reminder to wake up each day and pray. Before your feet touch the floor, pray that God will be your fortress and will help defend you from the devil and his schemes. When fear tries to choke us, tell it that it has no power because Jesus reigns and He gives us strength and power to endure.
My Savior reigns. Jesus has won. Let us rejoice in the Lord always.
