Ephesians 6:10-13
In 1977, a movie came out. It was called "The Edge." The basic story line was about two guys. Their plane went down in the wilderness in Alaska, and they were having to save themselves and find a way out. And that was hard enough all by itself, for it was freezing cold there. But then, they had another problem. There was a 10 foot, 1500 pound Kodiak bear that had gotten on their trail, had already killed another guy that was with them, and now he was coming after them.

He'll never stop. He'll just keep coming after you and after you and after you."
The devil is the original Terminator. He comes only to steal and to kill and to destroy. And he has his sights fixed on you. He's coming after you. Just like that bear was coming after those two guys the enemy is coming after you. Hey, what will you do? What will you do? Will you run? Will you hide? Will you cower? Will you cry out? Will you assume the fetal position? Or will you do what God calls you to do, what God clearly tells you to do as He speaks th ...
