LONGWOOD, FL-The Bible is laced with military expressions command, conquer, dominion, war, weapons, spoils which add up to one thing: God is passionate about protecting us! Throughout the Bible, we are told that all spiritual battles begin in the mind, and if Satan rules our mind, he rules our life. That is why God gifted every believer with the provision of His armor as protection against these deceits. Christie Cody's Adorning the Armour of God: A Call to Arms (paperback, 978-1-60266-287-2), details these warrior accoutrements and their corresponding purpose.
Says Cody, "Thousands of Christians are living in daily defeat, frustrated with Christianity, and they don't really understand why. For many, life has become a daily struggle just to make ends meet and live peacefully with our family, friends, and co-workers. Although God has taken us out of the world when we are born again by giving us citizenship in heaven, too often the world never gets out of us. Herein is the reason we live in defeat. This book will direct you to a sure path of getting out of the world and living in kingdom principles."
A graduate of Bible college, Cody spent 20 years living a defeated life and never understood why until she studied how the biblical fathers of faith were victorious. "The key is to remember that we are only sojourners in this world, and our life should be lived with an eternal mindset," says Cody. "We may not understand everything that happens here, but we can rest in the One who does."
Christie Cody lives in Atlanta and works as a senior account manager for a national facility services company. For the past two years, she has been an active member of Free Chapel.
