Warriors, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power! Put on the full armor of our Great Chief and Captain so that you can take your stand against the enemy, that evil trickster. Remember always that our fight is not against flesh and blood. It is against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Sometimes it is good to remember past wrongs so that the evil parts of history will not be repeated, but be careful! Do not allow bitterness to overtake you or you will lose your joy and any hope of restoration. Approve the good and be thankful at all times, for there is much to be thankful for. And continue to fight your battles in the spiritual realm where true restoration takes place.

Eagle People … Today’s reading is Ephesians 6:10-12. Pleya gi. “Go with Blessings.”
