Take up the shield of faith

Eph 6:16

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

When it comes to the subject of faith, many still lack an understanding, which is, it is your responsibility to do something about it. You cannot pray to God “O God, give me faith”. He has given you already. The scriptures say we have all been given a measure of faith (Rom 12:3). So you take your shield and put it up. 

How? You ask? Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. So, take up the shield of faith make the effort to receiving the word of God into your heart until faith rises up like a shield to put out the fiery darts of the wicked. 

If you do not do this yourself, the shield will not be put up. This is why some people end up been hit by the enemy. But you do not have to be hit, take up the shield of faith!

Confession:

I put my shield in place because I give attention to hearing the word of faith.
