In Ephesians 6:10-11, Paul bids us to "be" strong in the Lord. Note that this is something we should "be," not something we should "do." This is a state of existence..."being" strong.
There are many do's and dont's in a Christian's walk of life. "Being" is different. It's who you are. It's a matter of your inner state...your spiritual state.
Ephesians 4:22-24 tells us to take off the old self and put on the new. The new self is "created like God in true righteousness." This is part of that state of "being." We are new. We are to be strong.
Welcome!
Isn't it true that all of us are "Walking It Out" day by day with the Lord? We are in this journey together—perhaps in different stages and circumstances, but certainly not alone. Let us help each other by lifting one another up and being encouraged to continue on this marvelous journey. In the end, this journey will lead us to the face of God.
