Whether you already are a witness for Jesus Christ or want to be one, it should encourage you to know that God is in the protection business.

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International.  Yesterday, we discussed our offensive weapon provided by the Lord – the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.  Today is the defensive weapon – the shield of faith.  If you’re using the Sword – the Gospel of God – to witness to people, you will really need this Shieldbecause Satan especially detests Christians who practice personal evangelism.  So he shoots his flaming arrows at us.  Arrows like fear and failure with the goal of causing spiritual injury so that we’ll cease and desist.  But, God, our Protector, comes to our rescue with the shield of faith, with which we can extinguish all the flaming arrows.  So take up this shield and rely one it.   It’s faith – trusting in God – that prevails over Satan’s flaming arrows of fear and failure. For more tips to help you share your faith, visit our website at ShareLife.today.
