5 Duties of Christian Warriors

When we follow Jesus, we are called to these 5 "Rules of Battle." This 1-minute devotion explains. #BibleLoveNotes #Bible

When we follow Jesus, we follow Him into battle.

We’re in this world, but not of it (John 17:16), aliens and strangers on earth (1 Peter 2:11; Hebrews 11:13-16).

And we’re warriors:
When we follow Jesus, we are called to these 5 "Rules of Battle." This 1-minute devotion explains. #BibleLoveNotes #Bible1. Putting on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:11).

2. Fighting against “the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12).

3. Alert and sober minded because our enemy “prowls around like a roaring lion” looking to devour us (1 Peter 5:8).

4. Gladly serving because Christ’s love compels us (2 Corinthians 5:14-15).

5. Remembering our mission and our motto:
“Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called.” 1 Timothy 6:12

Let’s never forget that this world is not our home. It’s our mission field and our battlefield.
