I know that we do not fight against flesh and blood, but I forget so often and think it is the person that is hurting my feelings or making me mad. Sometimes, it's me. I'm the selfish one, wanting my own way. Either way, I have to remember to fight with the armor that God has given me.
Who could my enemy be: Spirit of Control, Spirit of Fear, Spirit of Gluttony, Spirit of Willfulness, Spirit of Selfishness, Spirit of Deception,
I need to know how to fight these enemies.
1. Know the truth - The Truth will set me free.
I am a child of God, I have the spirit living in me, I can do all things through Christ, these are just
some of the truths.
2. Find protection in righteousness
tell the truth, make restitution if necessary, forgive
3, Keep your faith strong - the enemy does not play fair. He will tell you things to try to weaken your faith,
and make you doubt yourself and God.
4. Helmet of Salvation to always remind you that you are protected because you are a child of God.
5. Most important - Know the Word of God- whatever the enemy says to throw you off balance ( you
know -make you mad, or depressed, or selfish or a know-it-all) There is a word of truth to
to counteract that dart.
You have to know the word of God to fight against the evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness who rule this world and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms.
