A Battle...

A Battle with this world

Ephesians 6:12

For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood (contending only with physical opponents), but against the despotism, against the power, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the sprit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.

From the above verse we can see that we are in war with this world. A careful study of the verse tells us that our war is not with our fellow beings, friends or relatives but with the devils and the demons of this world .Our enemy Satan, attempts to defeat us with his well planned strategies and deceits.

Satan is very wise. He knows what we like and what we don’t. He knows our insecurities, weakness, fear and what bothers us most. He is willing to invest any amount of time to defeat us .One of the devils strong points is his patience.

Tearing down those strongholds of evil

2 Corinthians 10:4-5

For the weapons of our warfare are not physical (weapons of flesh & blood), but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds.

The apostle Paul tells us that we have the weapons we need to overcome Satan’s strongholds.

So you should be wary of your activities and be alert in life. Begin all your work with a prayer and ask Him (GOD) to get enough strength to overcome the temptations of this world. Always keep in touch with God.
