Warfare

If you are believer in Jesus Christ, then you should know that it is promised by our Savior that "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12

We are daily fighting an enemy that we cannot see. Our enemy is not Osama Bin Laden or even the government. Our fight is with the devil and his fallen angels. We do not have any power on our own authority against the enemy. In order to fight the enemy and win we must:

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁴Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

¹⁵And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

¹⁶Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

¹⁷And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

¹⁸Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;(Ephesians 6: 14-18)

We need the power and protection of the Holy Ghost in order to fight to win. If you are non-believer, then that means you are powerless against the enemy. As believers, we know that out God is above all gods He is above all kings and kingdoms, and despite what scoffers, atheist, Satanist, and others may believe, GOD IS STILL IN CONTROL!!!! God still has the power and authority over the enemy so that harm will not come upon you. This is promise. Unless God allow certain events to occur in our lives, you better believe that is it for our good.

God's control was displayed in Joshua chapter 10 when God stopped time in order for Israel to fight the Amorites.

12 Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.

¹³And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. Joshua 10:12-13

Then in verse 25 it says "And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight."

What a mighty God we serve!

Lets fast forward to 2010. Do the nations of the world think that the God isn't capable of displaying this type of power, when the world comes against His beloved Israel? Just wait until the day of Lord, and they will see that our God still reigns on High.

God will fight for you just like he fought for Israel. All we have to do is trust and believe in His name. God will also give you the power to fight the enemy.
