Modern day politics are bad enough, but when mixed in with the media and social platforms like Facebook, it only exacerbates these division causing behaviors. Among believers this is just one more way Satan plans on causing disunity, the opposite of God’s unifying agenda. God wants to unite His people, yet we fall prey to the deceptive practices of the Devil. Ask God today to open your eyes spiritually, to remove the veil of distraction, busyness, and deception, to see what He sees, and to equip you with the full armor of God. Only then can we see what it is we are really fighting against.
9 Do not get involved in foolish discussions about spiritual pedigrees or in quarrels and fights about obedience to Jewish laws. These things are useless and a waste of time. 10 If people are causing divisions among you, give a first and second warning. After that, have nothing more to do with them. 11 For people like that have turned away from the truth, and their own sins condemn them.
Titus 3:9-11
12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. 13Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
Ephesians 6:12-18
