"Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one." Ephesians 6:16
Have you ever been sitting in church listening to a sermon and thoughts begin to enter your mind about other things? They may be just innocent thoughts or maybe thoughts of lust, but their intent is to rob you from hearing the Word!
If you are not disciplined in spiritual warfare to discern good from evil and know how to control your thought life, the enemy will load you up with unfruitful, mindless thoughts to distract you and draw you away into the world of vain imaginations! These are fiery darts and must be extinguished or else they will multiply and take over your entire thought life!
In order to stop the enemy's onslaught, utilize the shield of your faith to defeat him! Fear or faith, the devil wants you to walk in fear so that he can paralyze you, convincing you that whatever you are fearing has already come upon you.
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. II Corinthians 10:4-6
