Arm Yourself

Child, the Lord is on your side, and He provides you tools that will enable you to survive the strategies of the forces arrayed against you.  Use these tools.  Withdrawing from the battle does not work, because the battle will not withdraw from you.  A soldier who will not fight can nevertheless suffer injury.  Arm yourself. 

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but 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 6:10-18
