You often hear life referred to as a journey, a story unfolding—and both of those metaphors ring true. But they leave out what’s at stake.
 
The reality is this: when we say yes to God—when we step out in faith, in obedience to His will and His purpose for our lives—we step directly onto a battlefield.
 
The stakes couldn’t be higher, yet many people meander through life unaware that they’re in a battle at all. How easy is it to steal, kill, and destroy the life of someone who doesn’t even realize they’re standing in the midst of warfare?
 
But we don’t have to be another casualty in the enemy’s camp. The battle will rage whether we join the fight or not. Yet each day we wake up, we’re given a choice:
 
Will we be armored up and battle ready? Will we help others do the same? Or will we follow the wide path—the one that leads straight to destruction, to a battle already lost?
 
What will you choose?
 
This devotional is designed to equip you for the spiritual battle, help you recognize the enemy’s tactics, and remind you of the armor that is already yours in Christ.
