    Jun 9 2025
    Gentlemen, lock and load! The devil’s no cartoon villain—he’s a predator hunting your soul, and Locked and Loaded Faith: Mighty Men of Valor equips you to outsmart him. In Episode 010, “Recon Mission - Knowing Your Enemy,” I fuse Iraq combat grit with God’s unyielding Word to train Christian men for spiritual warfare. Stay vigilant, armor up, and fight from Christ’s victory in a world rigged with lies. We unpack 1 Peter 5:8’s warning—“Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls like a roaring lion”—to keep you sharp against Satan’s traps. John 10:10 exposes his plan to steal, kill, and destroy, countered by Christ’s abundant life. 2 Corinthians 2:11 urges you not to be outwitted by his cultural schemes, while Ephesians 6:11 arms you with God’s full armor. Finally, James 4:7 delivers your victory plan: submit to God, resist the devil, and watch him flee. Through Marine Corps parallels—like scouting Ba’ath Party probes in 2003 Al Fajr—this episode challenges you to know Satan’s tactics (lust, pride, despair), guard your identity, and lead your squad boldly. Practical steps fortify your faith: study Scripture, lock shields with brothers, pray without ceasing, and resist temptation with God’s Word. Join me to scout the enemy and crush his schemes.

We unpack 1 Corinthians 16:13’s battle cry—“Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong”—to show you how to hold your ground with vigilance, courage, and God’s strength. From Ephesians 6:13, we strap on the full armor of God to withstand the evil day. Galatians 1:10 reminds us to serve Christ, not the crowd, while Daniel 3’s fiery furnace inspires uncompromising faith.
