The Helmet of Hope

When a new recruit joins the army, he is issued a helmet.  From ancient times until now, the helmet has been recognized as a critical piece of armor that cannot be neglected, overlooked or dismissed. With enemy bullets whizzing by and bombs falling all around, it can mean the difference between life and death in battle.   Every spiritual battle is won or lost in the mind.  If you lose your hope, your faith fill fail because you’ve lost your helmet and, therefore, your head is unprotected.  The devil can then hammer away at your mind until your defeat becomes his trophy!  The Helmet of Hope was written to make you a skilled soldier fully prepared for every fight of the faith – keeping your mind protected for as long as it takes until victory is secured.
