Day 2: Recognizing the Fiery Arrows
Devotional
Satan's attacks come in many forms, like flaming arrows aimed at our spiritual hearts. Doubt, deception, fear, temptation, accusation, and condemnation are just some of his tactics. By understanding these fiery arrows, we can better prepare to shield ourselves with faith. Each attack is designed to sever our relationship with God and others. However, by identifying and acknowledging these tactics, we can stand firm, knowing that God's truth and promises are our ultimate defense.
