BE VIGILANT

Ephesians 6:18
Pray at all times
and on every occasion
in the power
of the Holy Spirit.
Stay alert and be
persistent in your prayers
for all Christians everywhere.



The Duke of Wellington asked a slouching young officer, “Why are you standing in such an improper position?” The young soldier who was in uniform replied sheepishly, “I’m off duty, sir.” The Duke chided the soldier saying, “A British officer is never off duty. Resume your military position.” We are to do likewise as we are commanded in 1 Peter 5:8 to, “Be careful! Watch out for attacks from the Devil, your great enemy. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour.” Stay alert. Maintain a strong position. Do not be caught off guard. Be prayerful.
