We too can have the advantage while in the battlefield. But we must remember to always keep our eyes on Christ, our thoughts on His word, live in obedience, and keep our hearts open and willing. Even when it seems like everything is falling apart or when the enemy is closing in on us.
Do you know why we will always have the advantage as children of God?
Because of Jesus! He did not just raise His arms; He outstretched His arms and took on a war that only He could-the war of sin and death. And He conquered it!
Praise God for Jesus! Praise God that His Son willingly outstretched those arms so that you and I could have the advantage in this fallen and sinful world.
Prayer: Thank Jesus for the sacrifice You made so each of us could overcome the battles of flesh, sin, and the enemy. Jesus thank You that we can look at the palms of Your hands and see the battle scars that You took on our behalf. You did way more than hold up Your arms, You defeated and fought the war for us. Praise You Lord, thank You. Amen
