Sunday’s Blessing – 07/27/2025 – The Unseen

Over the course of human history there have been many waves of plagues which have caused many deaths. The greatest challenge in battling these is the inability to see them. The germs or virus are only detectable under a microscope. Many do not even know they have been exposed until it is too late. It’s not until the symptoms begin to manifest in the human body that you realize there is a problem. 

This is similar to the warfare which Christians are engaged in. Scripture tells us we wage a battle against that which is unseen, but God equipped us with weapons which are also unseen, yet are effective at stopping the enemy which we cannot see.

This is the life of faith: the evidence of things not seen. When we place our trust in God, He gives us the desire and ability to do His will (definition of grace). The Creator brought to us through Jesus, the Messiah, the authority over everything on earth. We are seated with Christ at the right hand of the Father where we rule and reign with Jesus. Seen or unseen doesn’t have a chance against us.

Now for today’s blessing:

May you come to know your position in Christ, which is far above all rule, power, and dominion

So you will keep your mind focused on things above, not on those beneath

So you can help others find the hope in Christ

And teach them how to wage war on the unseen

May you become aware that the battle we face is not against flesh and blood

So you will not waste energy trying to change people and circumstances

But instead keep your trust in the One who overcame for you

So you may become a continual sacrifice of praise to your Lord
