Romans, Chapter 3, Verse 15-17
15 Their feet are quick to shed blood;
16
ruin and misery are in their ways, 17 and the way of peace they know not.
All have sinned. All human beings
are under the power of sin. Therefore all are in need of the grace of God. Sins
power is very much like that of a slave dealer or like that of sickness. No one
is innocent. Thus is the human condition without Christ.
Great courage is required in
spiritual warfare. Our enemies are terrible in strength and numerous beyond
count. They are ever active, ever alert to work our destruction. Yet, only one
angel of God is able to defeat the devil and all the demons. God never permits
us to be tempted beyond our strength. By God’s grace we can resist them and
advance the work of our sanctification. Know that the devil fears no person and
would destroy us if not for the limits God puts on him and the protection
provided by our guardian angels and the other eight choirs of angels. Let ourselves
be guided by the grace which the precious blood provides and call upon the
intersession of Mary Queen of Heaven. Resist the devil and he will flee from
you. (He will go on to easier pickings like any criminal) When tempted call
upon the Blood of Christ to give you courage and strength to fight the enemy.
