10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
Eph 6
I really needed this one today. I will not let the whiles of the Devil take over my thoughts and actions. I will stand firm in Christ for even though I may be in pain, feel overwhelmed and want to give up my God is greater than this body, greater than my thinking. It is only when I humble myself before God and recognize my shortcomings that He is glorified in me. Well I feel about flattened today so Lord rise up and empower this women of God that you may be glorified. For it is not by might, not by power but by thy Spirits says the Lord. Thank you Lord for answering my private prayer to be able to follow someone else's lead this day. I don't have to be in charge for my Father in Heaven has given me the Holy Spirit to lead me. I will rest in His leading this day.

Prayer really works. I didn't have an instant healing but I changed my focus and felt a big weight was lifted. At breakfast I smiled more and had all the kids lay hands on my back. I also asked them to pray that all of us would be obedient to God's lead. Physically I felt a little better but mostly I was healed of my stinken thinkin. We acomplished alot of housework and went swimming.
