Spiritual War

There is a spiritual war. We need to be prepared to fight the devil. It is his servants that will trip us, confuse us and knock us over if they can. It is his servants who want us to be miserable, discouraged and focused on all that is bad. If we are focused on the bad, we are not ready to serve.

• We must understand the truth and have it ready.
• We must stand in our position of favor, having been reconciled, living at peace with God and his family.
• We must be ready to take action. We have peace with God. We do not have to fear moving to serve, to encourage, to share. God has already forgiven us for all we have done. Will he be angry if we step out to act in love?
• We must hold onto God’s promises. Satan will work to distort God’s word in our hearts. We will remember God’s word, but Satan will say it is all a lie. We must remember to believe God, because he does not lie.
• We must keep God’s words and promises in our thinking and acting. It is the Truth that brings Satan down.
• We must be given to prayer. Pray for people to stand, to obey God, nd for the gospel break through barriers.
