Modern soldiers wear bullet proof vests to protect against bullets.
Your faith is your shield. If you have been hit by enemy attacks, it is not the enemy that has become stronger. It is you brethren who have dropped your shield.
You have put away your bullet proof vests.
You have stripped off your breastplate.
You stand naked and vulnerable in battle.

The solution is not to cry to God for mercy, neither is it to fast and afflict your soul.
The solution is to pick up your shield of faith.
Faith stops every arrow. Melts every bullet.
You are nothing without your Faith in Christ.

With Faith in God, nothing can stop you.
Be blessed in HIM
