Eph. 6:11-12 – Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh
and blood, but against the
rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, against the spiritual
forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

It requires honesty…
It requires action…

Mark 11:25…And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
It doesn’t require an apology
It’s more important than worship…
This is not an option.
