Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. \u2014 EPHESIANS 6:10,11.<\/p>\nFinally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

What would you think if you saw a traffic policeman in front of a car, trying to hold it back? You\u2019d think, He can\u2019t do that. He\u2019s no match for that car!<\/p>\n
Some people read Ephesians 6:10 and think that the Lord is telling them to be strong in themselves. And they\u2019re trying to be strong. They\u2019ll say, \u201cOh, pray for me that I\u2019ll hold out faithful to the end!\u201d But God didn\u2019t say a word about our being strong in ourselves or in the power of our might.<\/p>\n
That traffic policeman steps right out in front of those cars and holds up his hand, because he knows they\u2019re going to stop for him. He doesn\u2019t have to exert any strength himself; he\u2019s strong in the authority that\u2019s been given to him.<\/p>\n
That is what the Lord is telling us. He\u2019s saying, \u201cBe strong in the Lord. Be strong in the authority of His might. Just step out there in front of that oncoming devil. Hold up your hand in the Name of Jesus, and say, \u2018Thus far, and no further! Stop right now!<\/p>\n
Confession:
\nI am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. I am invested with authority from the Lord Jesus Christ. When I hold up my hand in the Name of Jesus and say, \u201cThus far, and no further,\u201d the devil stops in his tracks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
