“But without faith it is impossible to please Him:  for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him,” (Hebrews 11:6).  Simply put, you gotta believe! Faith is the foundation of our Christianity.  We have been given a shield of faith as our defense against the fiery darts of the devil.  Having a shield to maneuver during battle isn’t a new thought.  Paul talks about our shield of faith in Ephesians 6 and he was no doubt thinking of the shield the Roman soldiers used in battle, when he was describing the shield of faith we have as part of our armor of God.  We know that the soldier’s shields were strong and though they were made of wood they were often molded with iron around the edges to strengthen them.  They had a leather strap around the back so that the soldiers could move them side to side and up and down to use them as a barrier for the oncoming weapons being used against them.  The shield was intended to protect the soldier’s vulnerable areas that the armor didn’t protect.    Our shield is not made of wood or metal but instead is made of faith and it is stronger than any weapon the devil can use against us.  Join us in this podcast of Woman at the Well Ministries as Kim takes us on a journey through the scriptures revealing the importance of our faith.
