Ephesians 6:16 NASB "in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one."We stayed until the last bit of fire was put out! Today's verse is only one part of the Armor of God, and it's just as important as the others so be sure to go to His Word and learn about them all. When we were called to the house fire, our job was to put out the fire, not part of it but all the fire. We made sure before we left that there was nothing smoldering that could ignite again. When dealing with the flaming arrows of life, we need to be sure that our shield of faith is strong enough to extinguish all of the flaming arrows - not some, but all. Growing our faith as we put our trust in the Lord, will give us the strength to stand firm against the evil of this world. Maybe it's time we polish up our shields, for the battle is upon us! peace, tom
