22. Standing Firm in Spiritual WarfareRelated Media
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. (Ephesians 6:10-13)
How can we stand firm in spiritual warfare?
In this text, Paul talks about the spiritual war every Christian is engaged in. When a person accepts Christ as Savior, he crosses over from the realm of darkness to the realm of light. He enters a spiritual war that includes demons and angels battling over the souls of men.
Sadly, many Christians live without any real awareness of this battle, and are therefore losing it. There are two wrong views of this battle: some see Satan and his demons in every cough, problem at work, or difficulty with their car. He gets far too much credit in many Christian circles. However, in other circles, Christians act as if Satan doesn’t really exist. They know he is there, but they live without any true awareness of his activity in their lives.
We must recognize that Satan is real. He is an enemy of God and an enemy of the church. He tempts, traps, deceives, and kills, and nobody is exempt from his wrath. In light of this, Paul exhorts us to live the Spirit-filled life. In Ephesians 5:18, he calls believers to be filled with the Spirit, and then in the following verses, he looks at the results of the filling, including the Spirit-filled marriage, home, and workplace (v. 19-33, 6:1-9). A believer who is living a life of power—one that affects and changes people—will receive special attention from the evil one. He doesn’t waste his best resources on those far away from God, but the closer a person gets to God and the more faithful he or she is, the more the enemy attacks.
It is not uncommon for me to talk to men and women who experience more problems the closer they get to God. The more they read their Bible, the more involved they get in church or ministry, the more problems they encounter. In fact, I remember one young man sharing the constant problems he experienced when faithfully reading his Bible, and it made him not want to read it at all. This is exactly how our enemy works.
As seen with Satan’s temptation of Adam and Eve in the Garden, he wants people to doubt God and to turn away from following him. There is no greater joy for the enemy than when a believer is angry at God or cursing him. That was his objective when attacking Job—he wanted Job to curse God (Job 1:11), and he wants us to do so as well.
In Ephesians 6, Paul talks about standing firm in spiritual warfare. The phrase “stand firm” (from histēmi), when used in a military sense, had the idea of holding a critical position while under attack.”1 He mentions our need to stand four times (v.11,13-14). Essentially, he says the wobbly Christian—the one not serious about God and trapped in sin—cannot stand in this war. He will be destroyed. Sadly, many fail to stand in this battle. MacArthur’s comments are helpful in considering this reality:
Countless men and women have faithfully taught Sunday school for years, led many people to Jesus Christ, pastored a church, led Bible studies, ministered to the sick, and done every sort of service in the Lord’s name—only to one day give up, turn their backs on His work, and disappear into the world. The circumstances differ, but the underlying reason is always the same: they took God’s armor off and thereby lost the courage, the power, and the desire to stand firm.2
How can we stand in this treacherous war and not miss our calling, be taken captive, or be destroyed? We’ll consider three ways to stand firm in this spiritual war.
Big Question: How can believers stand firm in spiritual warfare according to Ephesians 6:10-13?
Believers Stand Firm by Being Prepared
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God…(Ephesians 6:10-11)
In order to stand firm, believers must prepare for battle. This is true for any warfare—a soldier cannot be successful without preparation. Governments invest billions of dollars into training their soldiers both mentally and physically, and such commitment should be similar for Christians—no corners should be cut in becoming spiritually prepared. Many lose this battle simply because of failure to prepare.
Paul says to “be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God.” Essentially, Paul wants believers to understand that this battle cannot be won through human strength, but in God’s strength alone. He talks about God’s power throughout Ephesians. In Ephesians 1:18-21, he prays for the believers to know this power.
I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.
This power raised Christ from the dead and put Satan and his demons under his feet (and therefore also under ours according to Ephesians 2:6). We must know that this power is in us. But also in Ephesians 3:16, Paul prays for the believers to be strengthened by it. He says, “I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being.” Finally, in Ephesians 5:18, he calls for us to be filled with the Spirit—meaning to be controlled and empowered by him.
A powerless Christianity is a vulnerable Christianity—in danger of being enslaved and destroyed by the enemy. This is what we see in most churches and in most Christians’ lives—a powerless Christianity. We must constantly pray to know the power that is in us, to be strengthened by it, and to be continually filled with it. That is what Paul again calls for in Ephesians 6:10. “Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power”—the same power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in heavenly places over the enemy. We must put on the full armor of God so we can take our stand.
Since the verb “strong” is passive present, the verse could also be rendered, ‘‘Strengthen yourselves in the Lord” or (neb) “Find your strength in the Lord.” It is the same construction as in 2 Timothy 2:1 where Paul exhorts Timothy to “take strength from the grace of God which is ours in Christ Jesus” (neb).3
In considering the armor of God, we must realize that throughout Scripture clothing often refers to attitudes and actions (cf. Col 3:12-14, Eph 4:24-25). The armor is God’s clothing, as it essentially represents his character. Isaiah 59:17 says, “He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.” Therefore, we prepare for battle by putting on God’s power and God’s character.
Interpretation Question: How can we be strong in the Lord (God’s power) and put on his armor (God’s character)?
1. We must recognize our weakness.
If we don’t recognize our insufficiency for this battle, we won’t put on God’s strength and character. Therefore, to prepare us for a lifetime of battle, God often allows us to go through pain, trials, and failure first to show us our weakness. Paul said this in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 about God’s response to his request to take away the thorn in the flesh:
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Often trials are meant to reveal our weakness so we can see our need for more of God’s power and character.
2. We must be dependent.
Again, Ephesians 6:10 can be translated, “Find your strength in the Lord.” We need to depend on God to stand in this battle. Sadly, too many Christians are independent. You can see this in their lack of desire to read the Bible, pray, or fellowship with other believers. Why is this so common? It is because they are too independent. They believe that they can make it on their own.
However, the very opposite is true. We can do nothing without Christ. We are like sheep without a shepherd. We are like branches apart from the vine. John 15:5 says, “‘I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
Are you abiding in Christ? Are you drawing near him daily? Or are you independent, and therefore losing this spiritual battle?
3. We must be disciplined.
The present tense of the verb “be strong” means that it is not a once and for all event—be strong—but a constant strengthening through God.4 The implication of this is that we need discipline. If it were a one-time event we could stop working, but it is not. We need to continue to strengthen ourselves in the Lord.
Discipline is not only necessary to be empowered by God, but also to put on his character—his armor. 1 Timothy 4:7 says, “discipline yourself unto godliness” or, as it can also be translated, “exercise yourself unto godliness.” We need to practice spiritual disciplines—prayer, Bible reading, fellowship, serving, solitude, and giving—daily in order to become holy.
The Christian with poor spiritual discipline is like the soldier without discipline—unprepared and therefore vulnerable to attack.
4. We must be thorough.
Paul says to put on the “full” armor of God (Eph 6:11). Partial preparation will not do. If there are any chinks in our armor—which symbolizes our character—that is exactly where the enemy will attack. If we commonly struggle with unforgiveness, lust, anger, or lack of self-control, the enemy will attack in those areas. We must be thorough in this battle. In physical warfare, little compromises can get someone captured or killed, and it is the same in spiritual warfare. We must constantly repent of our sins and seek to get right with God. We must be thorough—putting on the full armor of God.
If we are going to stand in this battle, we must be prepared by knowing our weakness, depending on God, being disciplined, and being thorough.
Application Question: How is God calling you to seek his power and character in your life? What are your spiritual disciplines like? How can you strengthen them?
Believers Stand Firm by Knowing the Enemy
Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (Ephesians 6:11-12)
A crucial part of every army is the intelligence branch. Those who work in intel gather information about the enemy so the army can be equipped and prepared. In Ephesians 6:11-12, Paul gives intel about our enemy so we can be equipped to stand firm in this war.
Paul mentions the devil’s schemes (v.11). The word “schemes” in the Greek is methodia, from which we get the English word “method.” It carries the idea of craftiness, cunning, and deception. It was used of a “wild animal who cunningly stalked and then unexpectedly pounced on its prey. Satan’s evil schemes are built around stealth and deception.”5
Paul refers to awareness of the devil’s schemes in 2 Corinthians 2:11: “in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.” In order for believers to not be outwitted and to stand firm, they must know their enemy and his schemes.
Interpretation Question: What are some of the devil’s schemes—his methods?
1. The devil uses accusation.
The name “devil” actually means “accuser.” One of the devil’s primary tactics against believers is to accuse and condemn. He accuses God to our ears—slandering his goodness and his faithfulness. Many people struggle with worship because they have accepted the enemy’s accusations of God. As in Satan’s attack on Eve, the enemy tempts us to doubt God’s goodness so we will fall into sin.
But Satan also accuses us. He does this primarily through condemnation. After he successfully tempts us to sin, he then says, “Feel bad—feel really bad!” in order to further pull us away from God. Because of their stumbles, many Christians don’t feel worthy to read the Bible, go to church, or serve. In contrast, the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin so we will draw near to God; he doesn’t condemn us and push us away from God.
Finally, Satan accuses other people. He continually brings up the failures of others and seeks to draw us into anger, discord and unforgiveness. Many Christians have left the church because they listened to the devil’s accusations.
One of his methods is accusation. He accuses God, us, and others.
2. The devil uses deception.
Very similar to accusation is the devil’s tactic of deception. Jesus says the devil is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44). He lied to Eve about God’s Word and God’s intentions. Since the devil oversees the world system, it is a system built on lies. He lies about what humanity is, what success is, what beauty is, and many other things. Satan lies in order to lead people away from God and his best for their lives.
He wants people to think they are an accident of evolution instead of the purposeful creation of God. He wants people to think that something is wrong with them—they are not pretty enough, smart enough, tall enough, tan enough, light enough, etc. We live in a world full of discouragement and depression because it is based on Satan’s lies.
He also deceives people about the Word of God. The church is full of false teachings and cults because of the lies of the devil. 1 Timothy 4:1 calls these lies “doctrines of demons.” Second Corinthians 11:14-15 says, “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.” He and his servants twist God’s Word—creating false teachings or leading people to doubt the accuracy and inerrancy of the Word. He ultimately does this to lead people away from believing in Christ and God all together.
3. The devil uses persecution and fear of persecution.
Though the devil’s favorite tactic is to use deception like a serpent, he often shows up as a lion to incite fear and to destroy. First Peter 5:8 says, “Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
In many nations around the world, he works to quiet believers or turn them away from God through fear and persecution. He roars so believers will be quiet about their faith instead of being the bold witnesses they are called to be. Christ describes the end times as a time of persecution, and a time when many will fall away from the faith because of it. In Matthew 24:9-10, he says:
“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,”
4. The devil uses the world.
Since the devil is not omnipresent, he uses the world system to draw believers away from God. It is essentially a system without God—meant to lead and corrupt people. Satan uses this system to deceive and to conform people to his image. First John 5:19 says, “We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.”
We must be aware that Satan is over the fashion industry, the entertainment industry, education, government, and religion. When he offered Jesus the kingdoms of this world, it was a literal offer (Matt 4:8-9).
When Christians are aware of this reality, they keep themselves from befriending the world (James 4:4), loving the world (1 John 2:15), being spotted or polluted by it (James 1:27), and ultimately being conformed to it (Rom 12:2)—where they look just like the world (1 Cor 3:3).
5. The devil works through our flesh.
Our flesh is the unredeemed part of our bodies—it desires to sin and rebel against God. Though saved, we still carry this part of our nature, which came from Adam. When we give in to the flesh, we open the door for the enemy to work in our lives. Ephesians 4:26-27 talks about how anger gives the devil a foothold. But this is also true of lying, stealing, lust, unforgiveness, corrupt talk, and worldly thoughts. The devil works through our flesh.
We get a good picture of this in the account of Christ rebuking Satan while talking to Peter. Matthew 16:21-23 says:
From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life. Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “Never, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to you!” Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
What gave Satan the door into Peter’s life? It was his secular, worldly thinking. He was mindful of the things of men and not the things of God. Man doesn’t want to sacrifice—he wants prosperity, wealth, and health. Acceptance of death and sacrifice are not part of his old nature. Therefore, many people open doors to the enemy simply because their minds are still secular—their thinking has not been transformed through the Word of God (Rom 12:2).
6. The devil works through an army of demons.
Paul says this in Ephesians 6:12: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
Scripture teaches that demons are fallen angels. Revelation 12:4 says that at Satan’s fall a third of the angels fell with him.
How many demons are there? We don’t know. But we do know that Satan could spare up to 6,000 of them to focus on one person. In the story of the demoniac in Mark 5:9, the demons said their name was Legion. As a Roman legion consisted of up to 6,000 men,6 the fallen angels appear to be innumerable. Satan has no shortage of allies, and all of them are seeking to destroy the people of God and the plans of God.
Paul doesn’t teach us everything about demons, but there are many things that can be discerned from this passage.
Observation Question: What characteristics of demons can be discerned from Paul’s teaching in Ephesians 6:12?
- Demons are supernatural.
Paul says we don’t battle against flesh and blood. This means that demons are supernatural, and that our primary opponents are not evil people, but the power that works behind them. Wiersbe’s comments are helpful here:
The important point is that our battle is not against human beings. It is against spiritual powers. We are wasting our time fighting people when we ought to be fighting the devil who seeks to control people and make them oppose the work of God… The advice of the King of Syria to his soldiers can be applied to our spiritual battle: “Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king” (1 Kings 22:31).7
- Demons are wicked.
Again, Paul says our struggle is against “the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Darkness symbolizes evil in the Bible. That is the demons’ character—there is nothing good in them. They are the spiritual forces of evil. John Stott says this about demons:
If we hope to overcome them, we shall need to bear in mind that they have no moral principles, no code of honour, no higher feelings. They recognize no Geneva Convention to restrict or partially civilize the weapons of their warfare. They are utterly unscrupulous, and ruthless in the pursuit of their malicious designs.8
- Demons are organized.
The demonic categories that Paul uses are not explained, but they seem to represent “differing degrees of authority, such as presidents, governors, mayors, and aldermen, on the human scale.”9
“Rulers” in the Greek is the word kosmokratoras or, with an anglicized rendering, “cosmocrats.”10 It can be translated literally as “world rulers.” This probably refers to demons that are set over nations or regions. In Daniel, we see powerful demons called “princes” over Persia and Greece (Daniel 10:20). The angel who spoke with Daniel was involved in a battle with two of these demons. In the same way, there are demons that rule like princes and generals over nations and cities—seeking to turn the people and the culture away from God. It is very interesting to consider that when Christ cast the demons out of the demoniac (Mark 5), they begged him not to send them out of the country. It seems that even the minions are territorial—focused on whatever territory or person they are assigned to.
“Authorities, powers of this dark world, and spiritual forces of evil” also seem to reflect varying ranks. MacArthur says this about the “spiritual forces of evil”:
The spiritual forces of wickedness are possibly those demons who are involved in the most wretched and vile immoralities—such as extremely perverse sexual practices, the occult, Satan worship, and the like.11
What else can we discern about our enemy?
7. The devil wants to kill us.
Paul says our “struggle is not against flesh and blood.” The word “struggle” was used of hand to hand combat—especially wrestling. However, wrestling in the ancient world was often a fight to the death.12 This wrestling wasn’t just for sport; it was deadly combat. The devil and his demons don’t want to just tempt us and lead us into sin; they ultimately want to kill and destroy us. Jesus says this about Satan in John 10:10: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
When Satan leads people into ungodly language, secular thinking, selfishness, or compromise, though they may seem harmless at the time, he ultimately wants to lead them to their destruction. The devil is nobody to play with—he is a destroyer.
The only reason he has not killed us is that God is the ultimate sovereign. As in the story of Job, God sets boundaries on how far the enemy can go. If Satan cannot kill us, he is content to attack our bodies, our sleep, our joy, our peace, our testimonies, our callings, and our relationships—with the hope of destroying them. Our enemy is a murderer, and our only hope is our Shepherd—Jesus.
8. The devil often attacks in an overwhelming manner.
Paul says for us to put on the full armor of God so that we may stand in the “day of evil,” or the “evil day,” as it’s called in the ESV (Eph 6:13). MacDonald says this about the evil day:
The evil day probably refers to any time when the enemy comes against us like a flood. Satanic opposition seems to occur in waves, advancing and receding. Even after our Lord’s temptation in the wilderness, the devil left Him for a season (Luke 4:13).13
Job experienced the “evil day” when the devil attacked his body, his family, his finances, and his friends for a season. This happens with many believers. Satan desires to make people give up, get angry at God, and turn away from him. A believer that is not being filled with the Spirit, who is not strong in the Lord, will fall prey to our enemy on this day.
Application Questions: What are some other characteristics of our enemy? What is a healthy perspective for Christians to have regarding the devil and spiritual warfare? What is an unhealthy one?
Believers Stand Firm by Fighting
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. (Ephesians 6:13)
Paul writes of the need to stand firm four times in Ephesians 6; however, it must be remembered that this standing is not a passive, defensive stance. It is, in fact, active and offensive. Ephesians 6:17 and 19 tell us so.
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God…Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel,
The sword was not primarily a defensive weapon, but an offensive one. As we share the Word of God with others, we are on the offensive. In fact, Paul prays for grace in sharing the gospel with others (v. 19).
It has been said that the best defense is a great offense. When the enemy is constantly being attacked, it is hard for him to mount an effective offense. Similarly, when Paul was going throughout the Gentile world spreading the gospel, he was fighting against the darkness. He was setting captives of Satan free by leading them to Christ. He was exposing the Roman world to light so that the darkness began to flee, and it must be the same for us.
We also see this in Christ’s words about building his church in Matthew 16:18. He says, “And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.” The gates of Hades not prevailing is a picture of the church on the offensive. Believers are taking the battering ram of the gospel and breaking down the gates of Hades in communities, cities, and nations. This is a proper picture of God’s battle plan for the church in this war.
Application Question: How can believers fight this spiritual battle?
1. We must know what we are fighting for.
In a war, a soldier fights to protect his home, his family, his country, and his freedom. These things motivate him, and it must be the same for believers. If we don’t know what we’re fighting for, our spiritual lives often become dreary and lifeless.
What do believers fight for?
- Believers fight for the souls of the lost.
Jesus says this to Paul about his calling as an apostle in Acts 26:17-18:
“I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.”
Similarly, Christians must recognize that they are on a rescue mission to save the lost from eternal darkness.
- Believers fight to please God and be rewarded by him.
Consider these verses:
Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. (2 John 1:8)
No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. (1 Corinthians 9:27)
John calls Christians to be careful to not lose their reward, but rather to seek a full reward from God. Similarly, Paul was not afraid of losing his salvation, but he feared losing his reward and ultimately his usefulness. We fight to please God and to be rewarded by him. Believers with no desire to please God will not fight—they will remain spiritually lethargic.
- Believers fight to glorify God with their lives.
First Corinthians 10:31 says, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” Even our fighting in this war is for the glory of God. When Christ went into the temple and turned over tables, he was consumed with zeal for God’s house (John 2:17), and with the glory of God. Similarly, we fight because we are consumed with the glory of God. A person not consumed with God’s glory—God being exalted throughout the world—will not fight.
How else can believers fight this battle?
2. We must know that the war has already been won, and we must fight with Christ’s authority.
Another important reality that every believer must understand when fighting this battle is that the war is already won. Therefore, we are not fighting to win, but because we’ve won. We see this taught in many texts, including the following:
I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, (Ephesians 1:18-22)
And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. (Colossians 2:15)
This is important to understand so that we don’t become discouraged and quit. Christ has already won this battle on the cross. Satan—the serpent—bit his heel, but Jesus crushed the serpent’s head by his own death and resurrection (cf. Gen 3:15). He disarmed the evil powers and authorities, and was raised up in authority over them. Christians must remember this.
This is why when Paul encountered those possessed with demons, he cast them out in the “name of Jesus” (Acts 16:18). He declared Christ’s authority over them. We must walk in this reality as well. Christ is seated in authority over the demonic powers; he disarmed them and has placed us in authority over them as well—because we are in Christ (Eph 2:6).
As Paul did, there may be times where you need to rebuke the devil in “the name of Jesus”—declaring Christ’s authority. You may have to pray in authority over people stuck in spiritual depression (cf. 1 Sam 16:15), habitual sin (cf. Eph 4:26-27), or some type of demonic illness (cf. Lk 13:11). You may need to speak and stand on this reality in your own life, as you feel assaulted by the enemy emotionally, physically, and socially. Yes, the flesh and the world tempt and attack us, but we also must recognize this very real evil force—the devil and his demons—and the authority Christ has given us in his name (cf. Matt 28:18-19).

I didn't use a blender. Whisking it in a glass mixing bowl was fine. The batter is thick, and at first it didn't want to stick to the fish (Tilapia), but just a little coaxing covered the pieces nicely. I used the exact ingredients as shown, but my wife will probably tell me to leave out the cayenne next time. And there WILL be a next time! I didn't make it in tacos, since I usually don't care for seafood tacos. A big Thank You to whomever created this.
You may not think of fish as a taco ingredient, but the Mexican-inspired fish-taco craze is beginning to spread. Once you've had one, you'll understand. This recipe is a healthful version of the battered, deep-fried and crispy fish at Rossy's Tacos in Baja California.
4 Reviews for Baja-Battered Fish
Excellent batter for fish or anything you might want lightly fried. I spiced up the fish and batter a lot more than the recipe instructed but we like spicy (cayenne pepper, white pepper and a Cajun spice blend). Big hit and will make it again.
Here's the recipe for the fish tacos (they're delicious!): http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/beer_battered_fish_tacos_with_tomato_a...
Good recipe for the fish but what about the rest of the taco?

Victoria writes 'I am the eldest grand-daughter of the author H.E.Bates. When my grandmother died we found letters that H.E. had written to her from Bledlow before they were married. It seems he was staying for 2 weeks rest (he was never a terribly well young man), and that there were others staying in what sounds rather like a B&B type atmosphere. I think he may have stayed in 1927 also.
The letters are dated March 1928 and there is no address except:
c/o E. Saunders, Bledlow.
The only clue I have is that in one letter he writes that 'the moon shines in at the window, over the valley and the orchard...' which isn't much, but it's all I have.
If you have any clue at all I'd be terribly grateful. The letters are lovely. He was head over heels in love with my grandmother and sent her primroses which he had gathered, and then primroses which he 'had to buy' - in Chinnor do you think? She sent him peaches and pears from Rushden. He talks of an artist staying at the same place and with his wife, and that the artist painted him.'
Please, if you have any information that may help at all, could you email Victoria at vickywicks(at)hotmail.co.uk

Lately, The Internet Is Going Crazy With The Recently Released Halston Tv-show & We Know Why!
Amidst such difficult times, what we all needed was an intriguing show that would distract us from everything and take us to another fascinating realm! Hence, you dreamt about it, and we’ve already got the perfect recommendation to make everything better, Netflix’s latest Halston mini tv-series. The recent internet-sensation Halston tv-series is based on the life of an American fashion designer, Roy Halston Frowick, aka Halston, who enjoyed the 70’s with his rising fame, exceptional creativity, the approach to redefining American fashion and ruling all the runways with his epitome fashion. The show depicts everything that you need to watch regarding the designer’s life. Further, with the exotic pinches of music, fashion outfits, and endless fashion moments, the Halston tv-show is gaining massive recognition nowadays, and it’s a masterpiece that you shouldn’t miss!
Presenting Ewan Mcgregor As The Modern-day Halston!
Ryan Murphy’s produced show begins with the famous Scottish actor, Ewan McGregor, renowned for his work in the popular Star Wars series, Birds of Prey, The Island, and many more- making his iconic entrance as Halston. At the start, we get to see Halston struggling and owning only a line of designer hats. However, just when the hats go out of fashion, Halston decides to pursue his fashion dream by opening an apparel store and contributing to the dream of dressing women entirely from head to toe with his inspired fashion apparel. Sadly, the first-ever exhibition of Halston faces a backlash that merely begins to destroy his confidence until he starts working on advice from his friend. Soon, Halston starts working on a minimalistic designed ready-to-wear women’s apparel that suddenly makes him the new talk of the fashion town.
But as we know, when there’s popularity comes trouble; hence, besides standing out with his unique designs in the ’70s, Halston lacks investments, and the fear of losing everything he has created till now starts to haunt him. Moving on, he signs a contract with Norton Simon and gets promised endless financial security and independence in return. Halston moves on to expanding his fashion range with the new spirit and even adds perfumes, luggage, carpet, and much more under his name.
In the end, Halston loses everything when he lets go of his alluring inspiration and gets involved in the endless struggles to maintain his career, complicated love relationships, and addiction to cocaine. Tragically, the magic of Halston in the fashion world ends as soon as he retires.
How Can We Neglect The Currently Featured Halston Tv Series-inspired Jackets & Coats?
As the show is all about fashion and a renowned fashion designer, it’d be a sin not to mention the best-selling Halston Jackets & Coats that have been featured in lookbooks so far! Besides, we all know how this season is thriving with intense fashion moments; hence, getting yourself the best apparel is necessary if you want to surprise everyone with your illuminating fashion sense. And when you’re at Movie Jackets-MJ, you shouldn’t worry about this at all. So, check out these three top apparel from the exclusive Halston tv-show clothing merchandise, available now!

Imagine being dropped off at a little tiny town at 6 am, after an overnight bus.. uncertain how to get where you are planning to go, and not knowing yet how to leave this town later in the day….. and then you discover that Pammukale (the pools of water that cascade down calcified walls of white (like a cave only outdoors) and the Hieropolis ruins above these incredible pools of mineral water are open…. so you hike up with your daughter and two other similarly confused travellers…to find that you have the entire site to yourself for hours before the tours come, and you watch the sunrise. and you run and jump and play through ancient ruins. ah, life is good.
And the rest works itself out. It took my daughter’s bit of turkish and a bit of crankiness to arrange for us to get a bus tonight to secuk… but she pulled it off. It is the day of celebrating the end of Ramadan, and for that we could be easy going, but the bus owners had assured us that we could get the bus later today. Anyway, we have a bus and no hard feelings. In the meantime, we have had lunch dinner in a ‘taverna’ a bit like Costa Rica, Courtney… (what am I saying? She doesn’t know about the blog yet, and she will be on her way with Cody and Evalee today to Amsterdam, anyway! At least I am assuming so.. communication by email is tough… I know Evalee had a bit of a cold or teething, but i suspect she can fly)
Megan is on the other computer booking our flights for when we return to Istanbul. She is such a good travel buddy to have.. so easy for me. But of course, did I know we’d land in the middle of a dark town, backpacks in tow, and nowhere to go? I smile at this, because sometimes that’s simply the best kind of travel. THANK GOM the dress is safely in Istanbul, because our backpacks are often left in shady places.
Temple of Apollo.. oracle site and necromantium… interesting… Intriguing the unknown of our history, and how uncertain all agree (nowadays) of how little we know.
off i go… check on the backpack and such. I’m so in love with travelling! And Turkey and the turkish people are extraordinary!

If you’re considering therapy, you’re probably facing an emotional burden you aren’t equipped to tackle alone. It could be a specific, pressing concern, like an eating disorder or binge drinking. It might be thematic, like struggling to communicate with your partner and relationship issues. Or maybe it’s a lurking, overarching issue, such as general anxiety or depressive tendencies.
Whatever you’re dealing with, a well-suited therapist is there to provide you with the tools to identify, navigate, and eventually handle any related crises.
But if you’re unfamiliar with therapy, then the investment – of both time and money – may deter you from seeking it out in the first place. You might wonder if therapy is worth the seemingly steep costs, or whether weekly sessions will fit into your already tight schedule. In short, you might be wondering if therapy is worth it.
Here are five reasons why therapy is worth it – and a look into the positive impact it can have on your life.
1. Therapy can help you alleviate emotional and mental health struggles – through evidence-based treatments
The most straightforward reason to go to therapy is to find relief from the mental health challenges you are experiencing.
Whether you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, eating concerns, a recent loss, or impacts of a traumatic experience, therapists can help you address these mental health challenges through evidence-based treatments.
For example, studies have shown that treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy can be effective as medication for many types of depression and anxiety disorders, and without the side effects of drug treatments. While the duration of treatment varies, many clients experience alleviation of symptoms within about six weekly sessions.
You don’t have to be alone in your struggles. A therapist can provide professional and clinical guidance to overcome your challenges.
2. Therapy is an investment in personal betterment, and a form of self-improvement
Do you love self-help books? Are you a die-hard Tony Robbins fan? Well, therapy is a form of self-improvement, too – with an emphasis on mental and emotional wellbeing.
Many people set going to therapy as a New Years Resolution for exactly this reason. Therapy gives you the one hour each week to invest in your emotional, mental, and relational health.
While we grow in many ways throughout life – we learn how to manage our finances, do well at work, take better care of our health – therapy gives you the space and professional guidance to intentionally grow in emotional and interpersonal ways.
Goals may range from wanting to strengthen communication with your partner, improve relations with family members, or increase self-confidence. It could also be to analyze childhood upbringing, resolve lingering concerns, or heal painful past experiences.
Therapy is a deliberate way to invest in your self-improvement across various aspects of life.
3. Therapy can increase your confidence, self-esteem, and communication skills
If you have trouble in areas of confidence and self-esteem, therapy is a great way to work on underlying causes – and learn tools to overcome them. Take low confidence, for example. Using a set of methods from the therapy approach cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), you can learn to identify thoughts that make you feel unconfident, and reframe them to build up higher self-esteem.
Another example? Working with therapist who's trained in work and career related challenges to:
- Help you manage work stress
- Improve communication problems at work
- Boost your sense of self
- Reach new levels of work success
There's no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, since it's flexible and can be tailored to your unique needs. You can empower your search in the right type for you by learning about the different therapy types.
4. Therapy may increase your income
In addition to all the great emotional and mental health benefits, seeing a therapist may have another (quantitatively measurable) benefit: Going to therapy may be correlated to increases in income.
One study analyzing 13 years of data from a survey of around 8,000 people living in the United Kingdom found that therapy increases income by 13% for men with mental health and stress concerns, and 8% for women.
While going to therapy of course doesn’t guarantee an increase in income, it’s understandable how the ability to healthily address problems in personal and professional life can help you be a more effective employee and contributor to your team.
5. Therapy is the “mental and emotional health education” that you never got at school
While we have sex ed, gym class, and maybe even home economics classes in middle and high school, we never receive education around our emotional and mental health.
Therapy is an opportunity to learn about and address these important parts of our lives and health. A big part of therapy is psycho-education, in which the therapist teaches you about your diagnosis, and the intricacies of the challenges you’re facing.
You may learn about what is causing the stress and anxiety you’re experiencing, how the brain functions, or why a family member or partner’s personality or past experiences is affecting how they interact with you.
Because mental and emotional health are such intricate topics, a therapist can help you understand your unique situation far better than an online search can. For example, your anxieties today may be affected by a trauma you experienced when you were little; or you may notice patterns in your romantic relationship resemble family dynamics you observed in growing up.
Bottom line: When it comes to therapy, “worth it” looks different for everyone.
Investing in therapy signals to your internal system that you value your mental and emotional wellbeing. Seeking therapy can take courage, so if you’re considering therapy, congratulations – you’re already halfway there!


In a COVID-affected world, logistical efficiency is everything – tight staffing levels can set any business back and create a supply backlog that is hard to recover from.
Luckily, here at Toyota Material Handling Australia (TMHA), we have several different Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) solutions that can help keep the warehouses of today and tomorrow running like clockwork.
AGVs, also known as “driverless” forklifts, can help to minimise damage and improve labour efficiencies. By having driverless forklifts doing repetitive work, your workers become available to handle more complex tasks with added value.
In order to optimise efficiency and flexibility in warehouses, TMHA offer different types of automated solutions, as one of our valued customers Bega Diary and Drinks recently implemented.
Given that much of Bega’s product is perishable with a short shelf life, smooth warehouse operation is of paramount importance for this famous Australian company.
One of the Toyota AGV products used by Bega at their Wetherill Park distribution centre is our Toyota RAE “Autopilot” Reach Forklift, which looks and feels like a regular Toyota reach forklift but with the significant benefit of hybrid manual/automated (driverless) operation.
Along with the ability to run autonomously, the RAE Autopilot forklifts can also be overridden and operated manually – perfect for situations where an operator may come across a non-conforming pallet or load.
Bega network operations manager Nicholas Adams noted that the RAE Autopilot machines brought a higher level of reliability, along with helping to contribute to a safer work environment.
A necessity considering that Bega’s Wetherill Park DC sends out around 20 B-double loads of product every day, translating to picking around 1.5 million litres per week.
Toyota AGVs are a perfect solution for a post-COVID world where automation will play an ever-increasing role in warehousing and logistics.
Here at TMHA we are keen to work with any business looking to take their first step on the automation journey or are looking to streamline their warehouse processes. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions on our Toyota AGV driverless forklifts.

Arvadans can join the nation in turning their porch lights on to turn off crime Tuesday, Aug. 6.
The annual National Night Out Against Crime is Aug. 6 this year. National Night Out began in 1984 in an effort to encourage citizens to get involved in crime prevention through police-community partnerships, neighborhood camaraderie and to send the message to criminals that neighbors are aware and watching out for each other.
People across the nation will gather on the first Tuesday of August, as they do annually, at neighborhood celebrations to reduce crime and the fear of crime. The biggest event in Arvada will begin at 5 p.m. Aug. 6 in Olde Town Square near Olde Wadsworth Boulevard and W. 57th Avenue.
The free event will feature live music, food and activities.
Arvada Police officers will begin their night of visiting with residents at the Olde Town celebration at 5 p.m. Officers will then travel to several other block parties hosted by residents around the city. The idea behind National Night Out is to have neighbors connected and looking out for each other in an effort to reduce crime.
“National Night Out is a great opportunity to meet our residents in a festive environment and to discuss ways to prevent crime as a community,” said Arvada Police Sgt. Mick Roemer.
The Arvada Police Department has been actively involved with National Night Out since 1997.

Heating furnace air heat exchanger automatic protection system
There is a protection system inside the furnace air heat exchanger, which protects it from errors during operation. It is understood that the heating furnace air heat exchanger automatic protection system improves the heating efficiency. The combustion air required for the combustion of the furnace is the hot air supplied by the heat exchanger installed in the flue. Therefore, the normality of the heat exchanger is directly related to the use of the furnace. The heat exchanger is also a metal tubular structure, which means that the protection of the heat exchanger is to prevent the temperature from being too high, so as to avoid burning the heat exchanger.
The flue gas discharged from the tail of the industrial furnace is generally as high as 600 ° C -1100 ° C. The heat taken away accounts for 30%-70% of the fuel supply heat, which reduces the fuel consumption of the industrial furnace. The most effective way to save energy is to recycle. The residual heat of high temperature flue gas. It is used to preheat the combustion air and return the recovered heat to the furnace to directly save fuel. In order to prevent the air heat exchanger from being burnt out when the preheater air temperature is too high, an air release pipe is arranged on the air exchange main pipe of the heat exchanger and an automatic release valve is installed for the hot air temperature exceeding the set value. Automatically increase the amount of preheated air and open the valve to dissipate a portion of the hot air. In order to reduce the temperature of the hot air passing through the heat exchanger, the purpose of protecting the heat exchanger is achieved.
The single-chip microcomputer controller of the heat exchanger automatic protection device has analog input quantity as temperature and pressure signal, and needs A/D conversion. It is enough to consider 8 bits from the accuracy; other input signals also include the start signal. The setting of the start signal takes into account the conversion of the automatic protection and manual control of the heat exchanger. The automatic protection control is started only when the MCU receives the start signal.

On Wednesday, Wayne County Public Schools reported two separate COVID-19 clusters at Norwayne Middle School which involves a total of 11 students [Five students in an in-school cluster and six in a Football Team cluster]. Only two of the students have been on campus this week.
“We learned about the two separate reported cases last Thursday and Friday. Through contact tracing and follow-up investigations this week we learned about the additional cases, which we believe can be reasonably connected within each cluster,” states Dr. David Lewis, WCPS superintendent.
As part of its COVID-19 response protocols, WCPS reported the cluster to the local health department. All recommended guidelines from the NC Department of Health and Human Services are being followed. In a child care or school setting, NCDHHS defines a COVID-19 cluster as a minimum of five laboratory confirmed cases with illness onsets or initial positive results within a 14-day period and plausible epidemiologic linkage between cases.

Condominium and villa investors will have a more affordable, flexible and attractive opportunity to invest in the Turks and Caicos Islands' (TCI) real estate following the enactment of the Fractional Ownership Ordinance. The Ordinance has not yet come into force, but shall do so once a notice has been published in the gazette, to this effect.
The Ordinance allows investors to buy a fractional interest, akin to schemes elsewhere in North America, in a property in the Turks and Caicos Islands; allowing the purchaser a deeded interest in the property as opposed to a simple right to use, which provides a better capital investment for the purchaser and a larger market for the developer.
A timeshare or not a timeshare?
The Ordinance is, importantly, not a wolf in sheep's clothing; it does not simply re-invent the timeshare wheel.
Fractional ownership is distinguished from timeshare by the legal nature of the investment as the purchaser obtains a registered proprietary interest and therefore "owns" the property. The basic premise is that a 1/12 interest (the maximum number of interests under the Ordinance) in a property is much easier to sell than the whole. This, of course, could see an investors' initial capital investment increase in value, in a prosperous market, but also means less risk of serious diminution in value in a subdued market, as the risk is shared amongst the fractional owners.
Why is it needed?
Under existing laws, anyone owing a fractional interest in TCI real estate needed the consent of all co-owners to sell or transfer it. Also, all co-owners were entitled to occupy the property 100% of the time. The new Ordinance solves both problems, as well as creating an effective statutory regime for the governance of rights and duties affecting fractional ownership.
Mechanics – how does it work?
Under the Ordinance, an applicant has to submit for registration, at the Land Registry, the fractional interest scheme in respect to a particular property or properties. This includes a private villa ("a Non-Strata Property") or all or some of the condominiums in a development ("Strata Property"). If the fractional ownership applies to Non-Strata Property then the Ordinance sets out prescribed provisions to deal with: the disposition of a fractional parcel; easements; administration of a fractional parcel and the destruction of the property/parcel. The Strata Titles Ordinance (TCI's condominium law) applies to a parcel that is a Strata Property.
Following the scheme's registration, the fractional interest can be sold, leased, assigned or otherwise transferred provided that written notice is given to the fractional corporation at least 14 days before completion. Following the completion of each sale, the purchaser will receive a land transfer in the usual form, and will pay stamp duty on the consideration paid, in the usual way.
Within 14 days of registration, of the scheme, the developer is to file with the registrar and publish in the Gazette a descriptive statement, which details, amongst others: the developer; the location of the scheme (to include a survey plan of the scheme); a statement of any easements or interests in the land; an explanation to the form of ownership that is being offered; a general description of the scheme and a statement of the usage rights.
Upon the registration of the scheme the proprietors of all the fractional interests become a corporate body. If the scheme applies to a Strata Property, then the fractional corporation is the strata lot proprietor and it shall comply with the obligations set out in the Strata Titles Ordinance. If the scheme is for a Non-Strata Property then the Ordinance sets out the duties of the corporation to include: insuring the property; keeping the property in good repair; the setting up of a sinking fund for common expenses and a regime for the payment of such.
The proprietor holds the interest subject to the fractional interest by-laws (together with any strata by-laws and any restrictive agreements etc.) being in the prescribed form referred to in the Ordinance or such form as the fractional corporation shall resolve to adopt. In practice, developers will, on registration of the scheme, pass their own preferred by-laws (which notably will provide a usage regime, which is absent in the prescribed by-laws), while the developer owns all the fractional interests. The by-laws shall set out: the rights to use the property; obligations of each proprietor; rules for non occupancy; appointment of an executive committee and fractional manager (most likely to be the operator of the resort), whose role is to manage and maintain the property.
In short, this new Ordinance is designed to benefit everyone.
As a buyer, the key benefit is that the scheme increases one's purchasing power to acquire a registered interest in an asset, which might not otherwise be affordable or which would not, readily, be chosen to purchase. Owning that little bit of paradise is now more achievable, for many. There are no limitations on the right to sell and because the investment is smaller than a 100% interest, risk is reduced. Finally, there is the intangible benefit of having the opportunity to meet and know other scheme owners who share similar interests.
For a developer, the target market is significantly expanded, and the profit potential is increased.
For TCI, the law benefits the tourism industry as a whole with increased visiting owners and their guests, who typically spend more per visit than hotel occupying guests.
With this in mind, the impact of the scheme can only be positive.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.

These Are The HoloLens Games You’ve Been Looking For
Prepared to get hold of the very first games moving by helping cover their the $3,000 HoloLens Development Edition on Feb 29 in front of its March 30 launch? You will probably visit a wide breadth of game titles to test if you wish to covering out individuals a lot of money.
Based on Microsoft corporate v . p . Kuno Tsunoda, Youthful Conker, RoboRaid (proven at E3 as Project X-Ray) and Fragments is going to be coming with HoloLens itself. Fragments may be the sport you’ve probably heard minimal about, however it sounds intriguing, like a crime drama you need to communicate with figures to patch together the clues which will eventually help solve a criminal offense. It’ll even feature figures that may “sit” around the couch with gamers, permitting these to talk straight to the figures. In the event that does not seem next-level, I’m not sure exactly what does.
Youthful Conker is what it may sound like: Microsoft’s squirrel mascot by means of Rare exploring platforming, however with a twist. The game’s designed to affect the conditions you control Conker in based on where you stand. If you opt to participate in the family room after which go towards the bed room for many gaming before going to sleep, you can finish up seeing two completely various kinds of game play.
Lastly, RoboRaid is really Project X-Ray, which you might have performed at E3 this past year should you be attending. It is a first-person shooter that finds aliens entering your family room. You need to shoot them lower using the special Clicker, because the game implements spatial seem to lead you where you can shoot next because the walls surrounding you crumble lower.
I am not likely to have $3,000 to get a HoloLens, however the seem of those games has me especially interested, much more so than I have seen using the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. I’d like to get hold of any one of it and provide it a spin. Hopefully there are other engaging concepts coming lower the road for that emerging tech, because Let me discover their whereabouts.

Locate your oil filter. It should be in the same area, just above the filter. It is important if you want to know how much oil you have in the crankcase, and how much pressure your oil pump is pushing the oil throughout the engine to lubricate and cool off to prevent the engine from overheating.
Over time, leaks do happen. You may able to get off by taking the sending unit out (while doing oil change, so you won't lose any oil), clean it, put new teflon tape, and re-insert the unit, and tighten it. If that doesn't work, get a new unit, should be around $30.
If you were to have someone fix it, it will be one hour labor.

Thousands of Marines with 26th MEU end exercise, head to Mediterranean Sea amid rising Middle East tensions
from Marine Corps Times
The U.S. has ended a planned exercise with the Moroccan military to send roughly 2,500 Marines into the Mediterranean Sea as tensions between the U.S. and Iran rise, a defense official confirmed on background to Marine Corps Times. The risk of a new conflict between the U.S. and Iran increases in the fragile region, many experts say, after the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the revered leader of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps – Quds Force.
