The head in our spiritual warfare

Our head in spiritual warfare...

Walking down the street I saw two GNBs. They were riding in a motorcycle and the one driving looked like a turtle, with a short neck, and I thought to myself: “It is a enough that green bullet proof jacket?”.

Since I have some experience in shooting, I know we tend to believe a thick bullet proof jacket serves  to be saved but, what about THE HEAD?

As Christians, we need to be reminded that the head is all about in this spiritual warfare. We can be shot, cheated, hurt or wounded; but the most important part of the body to take care of is not the head, but the mind itself, the thoughts we usually think or nurture.

That man was funny. It reminded me those days I had my guns, I knew to shoot well, but seldom wore a safe bullet proof jacket (the one I used was blue, and made in Israel).

What about the spiritual helmet?

Most of us walk this life wearing the uniform of a lie, an empty name of a religious belief, and lacking God's full armour. Let's say Saul Paul was right when reminding Christians to wear God's spiritual armour, but Jesus is more profound than Paul's speech...

This week I watched “Jesus the revolutionary”. It's a movie made by 1996, in Israel, with Jewish, Italian and Russian people... When Jesus was in front of Pilate, He told him: “You would not have authority OVER me unless God has given you that power...” (not literally).

How many times have we been hurt, cut to pieces?

How many times we gave permission to be hurt or killed?

I guess I can be walking shielded like a military tank, but some bullets and spiritual issues would hit me if I'm not well sit on the rock of His truth. No matter how many bullet proof jackets I imagine I wear, my head would be the soft piece of my hardware I need to watch and take care of...

Let's pray for His firewalls!
