Everyone falls short of God’s standards for our behavior. The Apostle Paul’s struggle is shared by most believers. Our righteousness is filthy rags to God.
“I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God’s law with all my heart. But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.
Roman 7: 21-25 (NLT)

Please meditate on one of my favorite verses.
“Therefore, since we are encompassed with such a great cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.

For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and your hearts give up.”
Hebrews 12: 1-3 (MEV).

God reminded me today of a powerful truth: the real battle isn’t against the people who hurt, oppose, or frustrate us. Those individuals are often just foot soldiers—unaware of the spiritual forces directing them from the shadows.
Our true struggle is against the rulers, authorities, and cosmic powers of this present darkness.
So let’s pray for greater discernment and opened eyes—for ourselves and for those around us—so we can see the battle clearly and fight it the right way.
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the ...
