I'm not doing as well as I should and I can't figure out why.
- I've been baptized with water unto salvation
- I've been born again and received the Holy Spirit, (Resurrection Sunday)
- I have the full armor of God on but I'm not gaining any hard fought ground
It looks like you have all the bases are covered except one and that is empowerment, (Pentecost Sunday), the immersion in the out pouring of the Holy Spirit.
Our victory is in Jesus but remember He has included us in His Army so that we all might participate in the victory over evil.
In Acts chapter 1 Jesus told the apostles not to depart Jerusalem until they received the promise of the Father.
Acts 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
The apostles did as the Lord instructed them and in Acts chapter 2 we see them empowered on the day of Pentecost.
Acts 2 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
This is the plan for all of God's people and it is absolutely vital in these last days.
