First principle
Spiritual Warfare
We are at war — not against flesh and blood.
This hour
Under fire
The next right hold — walk this hour.
- This is not only circumstance. Stay sober and watchful.
- The lie says you cannot understand the Word. Open Scripture. Obey it.
- Stand under Christ. Do not fight in the flesh. Eyes on Him.
Prayer
When you do not have the words.
- Father, I stand in Your strength and Your Word. Amen.
Truth
When you can read deeper — Scripture-rooted steel.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith.
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.
For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.
Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
