WHEN PRESSED BY MANY A FOE The fiery darts of the wicked. Ephesians 6:16. Be not surprised if doubts and fears assail you. They are to be expected like evil thoughts or disease germs. You cannot avoid being attacked and, if you are sore beset, remember that the Book has told you they will come. It is not wrong to be the target of their onslaughts, but you need not be overcome by them. It means that you are in real conflict and dangerous enough to the devil to bring on his hostility. If you wonder why they seem to increase as you go on and grow older, it is because the fight gets hotter as you grow in grace and it never lets up. But greater is He that is in you than all your adversaries. You are pressed by many a foe so that you may be all the more helpful to others who are not shadowboxing but are in the thick of the fight. All the Days.
