A friend of ours lives in the mountains of Tennessee.  One morning she walked out early into the dark onto her porch, only to realize there was a bear at the edge of her porch.  She quickly proceeded back inside.  But do you realize that there is a lion waiting for you each morning, afternoon, and evening, prowling around, ready to devour you and your family and your church?  Jesus is teaching us here in this sixth petition of The Lord's Prayer to take Satan and the powers of demons and darkness in this world seriously.  Oh, how we need God's spiritual protection in our temptations and from evil powers in this world if we are to continue Forward in Faith!
