FAITH IS THE DEFENCE

Eph 6:16

“Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked”

Faith is the defence and guard of every other Christian virtue. The word faith is from a Greek word “pistis” and it is from a root word that means “persuasion”, that is a moral conviction of the truthfulness of God. 

Hebrew says faith is the conviction of an unseen reality. And faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Taking the shield of faith is nothing more than hearing the word until faith rises up like a shield around you to prevent those arrows of the enemy from penetrating and bringing you down.

Note this, if you do take up your shield you will be able quench all, not some but all fiery darts of the wicked. So take up your shield now!

Confession:

My shield of faith is in place and it is intact. Therefore I shall not suffer any casualty or injury. No weapon formed against me shall prosper!
