Shall I not drink from the cup of suffereing the Father has given me? - John 18:10-11
When you fight spiritual battles, you have a variety of resources available
Your choice will always determine if you win or lose
Peter did the best he could; he went wrong by putting confidence in his own strength and abilty to get things done
Peter's problem was not a lack of willingness to follow Jesus but a problem of choice of weapons
Only when we receieved the holy spirit did he become a fearless and powerful preacher of the gospel
What weapons do you use to fight your spiritual battles?
