1 Peter 5:8-9
8 Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9 Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters[b] all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are.
Today is Remembrance Day, a day of remembering the troops that had fought and are fighting the wars and battles. Risked thier lives, fighting and sometimes even standing for freedom.
Even though this was our YE verse theme this year I thought I'd use it for today out of my searches. Christians all over the world are going throuh spiritual warefare and spiritual battles. There maybe some that are even martyrs for Christ in some countries. I know I have battled and stood spiritually and died spiritually in my stands and battle(s), but God has won the war! and I'm sure God is not done with me yet and standing for Him. Jesus has sacrificed himself for the whole world to set menn and women free!
As you take a look at the video, remember the troops that made Canada the land of the free! Remember them.

Great post and a great reminder that all of our freedoms we enjoy in this country come from those who were willing to obey orders and march straight into death… for me. How thankful I am!
Also it is a great reminder of the Freedom I have in Christ because He too, gave His life. Followed orders and took a hard path leading to death – so He could set me free from the bondage of sin. How thankful I am!
